Default TOYO now at TireRack!

Hey Everyone,

I just saw that Toyo tires at now available at TireRack for the first time ever!

So, for all you guys using R888's and RA1's, I'm curious how their prices compare with your usual sources.

Here''s the links to each tire.

Yes.
But you still have to mount/balance and shave. Be sure to compare apples to apples.

Unshaved = spooky handling

You've got to consider the convenience of getting everything done trackside versus having to haul your new tires and wheels to a shop and waiting around to have them mounted and balanced. Time is money.
