Has anyone who previously used R888's tried the new R888R's? If so what car/sizes and what were your thoughts?

Very good tyres. Stiffer sidewall help tyre temps, and they wear much better than the R888. Verdict is still out on their wet weather abilities as I've only done one race in the wet on them...
FWD 215bhp saloon of 1150kg's.

Thanks for the feedback, did you notice if they warmed up quicker as they advertise?
