I think bottom line maybe 10 -20% of people will get the R888 to work properly and actually like them. But this opinion is based on the response of Spec Miata guys. (I ran the R888 with stock ZCP susp. and -2.2 in the front) I would recommend either staying with stock or stockish spring rates running AD08, RS3 etc…. or move up to Conti scrubs, BFG R1, etc and run the appropriate spring rates for the tire. It is amazing how the whole system needs to work together. For example I ran the Conti scrubs with the above stock suspension -2.2 front……..I was faster once I got the tires greasy and car started to move around. Thus the tire was not over powering the suspension.
