Yup another ad08 fan, you won't look back. Never liked t1r's. If you want to stick with toyo then r1r is what you want. Not sure on sizes and probably more expensive than ad08's.

Again, another AD08 fan. Been using them for years now!
A great compromise as a road/track tyre in my opinion.

I was a big fan of the t1r, having only known the t1s prior to it and Bridgestone on the Vx220.
I have AD08R now and wished I'd changed years ago..

I put the correct amount of air in the present tyres...and the car's transformed!
So no market research needed, I'm afraid. Lol.
Plenty tread on the C Drives so will prob roll with those for a bit yet.

loving your style Campbell
Blackcircles don't appear to list the AD08r's at the moment. Does anyone have any other suggestions where to buy? TIA
