They look good, just hope you don't struggle to get heat into the rears enough for them to worth

solvi · 27th August 2011, 17:40

ok the first time i test it seam like firt time in track...

i ve made 2 stupid donuts ...just because they REALY nead to heat..a lot.

so count 3 full laps go go optimum temperatur....but after that, they are realy beter than toyos...and ive runed almost 6 pair off r888 ..

maybee ill use the r888 again in hillclim dirty road...

and its a lot off money for 4 tyres

raunchz · 27th August 2011, 17:42

I wander how slicks upfront and r888s on the rear would handle?

solvi · 27th August 2011, 17:58

good one..maybe handle even beter...because whith the sliks the rear dond slide on warm tyres.when you hard turnig it seams its jumping...evrytime i go i ve run a difrent setup its very hard to tell...lolol

solvi · 27th August 2011, 17:58

i think its usable...very usebale..

Dave_P · 30th August 2011, 10:50

I presume you run alot of camber?

I tried radial slicks on the front of my 106 and it was all over the place.

AndySAXO^p · 30th August 2011, 11:57

They should be better than the 888 as they are a full race slick.

Yer I bet your still stughling to get the rears to max working temps.

I would of gone out, and done a run. Get them all hot, swap the fronts with rears after, then the rears should be better.

solvi · 30th August 2011, 23:56

yes i kcnow lolol , but its not so easy to warm the tyres, not just 1 or 2 straist and breack at Padok...it is not so easy...but ok!!

nice set up what is the engine spec of the car?

AndySAXO^p · 31st August 2011, 09:06

Not easy because you have a hard compound

For a Saxo, medium compound really is the compound to use. Can use hard on the front, but Saxo get no really heat in the rear.

solvi · 2nd November 2011, 14:02

hello ...

so the slicks over normal rain are imposible to drive, that everybody knows!!!!!
and its true , you cant brake or pull not even turn. not usefull!!

BUT maybee what you dont know is that under low rain or humid pavement the sliks ( they are michelim S9B) , still are a beter tyre , even whith small rain condicions they are driveble , but a bit less.

yes, they cost 1270 euros the 4 but is the one off the most impresive mod ive made .
will buy it again and again.

thanks for .

solvi · 18th March 2012, 21:42

using slicks againts normal tyres r889 advan etc JUST ISNT FAIR!!

they are alot beter...people in other saxos asked abaut my 200hp engine ...its almost stock just a 715 cam etc ....

its the tyres.....best upgrad for track you just could not imagine...but have to go vry stiff on suspencions....

I used to run Slicks up front and Yoko A048's on therear of my B16 vtec Metro and it was by far the best combo.

Different on all cars/setups though.....
