Nah mate, but I've got Toyo T1Rs on at the moment and they're brilliant. Definitely don't think you could go too far wrong with anything toyo.

I couldn't get the R888's in time so I went with the 595 RSR's.

Friend of mine with an integra, EXTREMELY modded, used a set of 888s, only lasted him 3 months of punishment before they were down over 50%
He said he'd be sticking with Federals simply due to life of the tyre being far superior.....
But I dont really know his driving style...

3 months is pretty poor, are they much cheaper than the 595's?

If not then I see no reason to not stick with the Federals.
