BTW, I've heard nice things about the Vredesteins' ride quality, etc. In fact, I've actually heard some guys likening their smooth, serene ride to that of the Michelins. But the problem is that they are narrow, no different than Nittos and Sumis. I don't drive my car on a track, so the Sumis were fine, other than the fact that they looked like bicycle tires.

If you want a good tire, then there are several choices. If you want a WIDE, good tire, then it's Michelin or Toyo...at least until Goodyear gets off its azz and decides it wants our money again. It's all about your priorities; mine was to make my car look like a ZR-1, as opposed to a base Corvette.

If I was to find out tomorrow that Toyo was discontinuing the R888 in our sizes, I'd probably buy 2 sets.
