Has anyone fit the 295/30/19 R888r’s on the stock rear ZCP wheel? (Stock ZCP suspension)

295 really deserves at least 10.5 wheels imo.

I ran the 295's on my 10.5 wheels at the track.

I don't like the R888R. It's really noisy, practically like the NT01, and it doesn't grip as well

Current run a 295/30/19 r888rs my stock zcp wheels they fit. But I can’t see it being as effect as if they were on an 11. R888rs run big so they some what bubble over on the rim. If you are drag racing or doing 1/2 miles this is no issue. If you are doing auto x or road course I wouldn’t do larger than a 265/30.

Thanks. Yeah I’m looking for a good 1/2 mile rear tire. Since I’ve added my AA supercharger traction was an issue at the last race. Im going full E85 before the next one so it’s going to get worse. It’s hard to find anything good in a 285/30/19. This is strictly a weekend/track car so I don’t care about noise or wear.

The R888s have to come to temp, otherwise even worse than reg. street tire. Hey Shadow I don't think Nitto makes a 295/30/19.

r888r the r888 is now fazed out. but I would defiantly not agree with even the r888 being worse that a normal street tire has I was able to roast PSS from a 50 even on a warm day where as even in the colder winter days at 45 degrees was able to hook with them.

Unfortunately they don't, but I used 275/295 R888R and it was noticeably slower than the RE71 or NT01 in 275 square

It was very disappointing

These are 295/30 R888R on a 10.5" wheel. They bubble on a 10.5", I definitely don't recommend it on a 10". Other tires might barely work, but R888R are wider than most.
