I ran a combination of 275/35 18's in both Ra1's & R888s in both wet and dry conditions.The RA1's work great in the dry and seem to tolerate a fair bit of sliding around with out falling off like the 888's do.I ran with 888's on the front with peaked RA1's on the rear and this combo worked very well with reasonable balance with mild understeer & mild very controlable oversteer under power on corner exit.A much better setup than the 888's all round and quite enjoyable to drive and to be able to 15 laps in a row with good rear grip is a big plus!
They did not work so well in the wet and the shaved RA1's had more grip in the wet than the almost full thread 888's had.I put my PS2's on for the rest of the day and had some fun
