New tires? R888r

Nickf10 · 05-25-2017, 09:38 AM

Hey guys i have a 2013 m5. 20 inch wheels non comp. will 315 30 20 fit on the stock wheels? Anyone on here running this size?

I've heard people excited about them on the GTR platform, and should be an improvement.

My experience with them on the GTR was they are veryyyyy stiff sidewall and will be very hard on the drivetrain.

Just got a set for my 991TT - going autoX this weekend and will get you some feedback.

Best tires you can daily and drive to the track. Will last about 5k-8k depending on track events. I absolutely love these tires. Now the problem is I want to run 285 on front and 315 in the rear for track days. Or would everyone recommend 285f and 285r? Tires seems to be cheap enough to play around with sizes.

I am thinking of going r888 also, but may give the PS4 a shot. Ive seen a few people running those sizes with comp pack, no rubbing and they like them.

Update with a review if you pull the trigger on them.

Great tire for traction, however, it is loud and only has a tread depth of 6/32. Depending on your power level and driving habits, that's a few thousand miles (2-5k)

As for fitment, it does fit the rear 343Ms with a slight bulge. Nothing crazy.

What size rear R888's on the black M5? 315/30-20?

My conclusion on these tires from the R888

-Sticker compound
-Less road noise

These tires are amazing. I have put about 3k miles them since they came out.

HussainM5 · 07-28-2017, 10:43 PM

perfect fitment with 5mm spacers

Are most you using MDM mode or TC off when using these tires?
