I agree with above comments about the R888's. I love them as DD and track use on my GT3RS. Would recommend them hands down.

To above comment, the Nitto INVO's were a grave disappointment. Their sidewalls are terrible. Soft, no hardcore structural integrity, bouncy and mushy on hard cornering. Maybe good in just a straightline but that's not the life of a GT3/RS.

btw what are the prices of the Pirelli Trofeos? May have to raid the kids college fund.

Ranger, I respect your opinion, however this turbo owner has his car set up pretty well for a twisty ride and I have been more than impressed with this tires ability to give me confidence (which I never had before with the turbo due awd feel as appose to the S I previously had) through twisties. While I am not making a comparison of turbo to GT3/rs, I am stating that this tire is as good as the 888 that you recommend. I also know plenty of people who have been disappointed by the 888's but this just shows that its all in what makes you feel comfortable.
