My preference would be the Toyo's.

But, I've only ever used them.. So its a biased choice Lol.
Although my brother has AD08's at the moment and he praises them to the high heavens.

one thing is the federal 595 are more a 888, ad48 trye not a ad08. r1r tyre.

but the r1r and federal 595 have the same tread wear, but the ad08 has a higher one so will last longer.


but like i said federals are more a 888, ad48 trye.

what is it for? full track use? or both track and road?

For the price then federals are the best tyre, a lot of people rated them better than 888.

But 888 have tread wear of 100.

you mean a048's i presume?


id go for the federals out of that list as they seem to be the best value for money.

Yer Danny mybad, sure people knew what I meant :)

Could get silverstone type RR ? But have a much higher wear rate due to the way they grip.

used my r1r tyres today, had them a year lol

gave it a proper spanking, feel just as good as a r888, on the road obviously may be different story with track temp in them.

just a heads up that they are decent tyres ;)
