TOYO R888 RUBBER..any good?

[R32UK]

Dont know much about the rubber but if they are as good as everyone is saying then I think this could be the answer to beating the 5.5sec  0-60

why would you be so interested in beating 5.5 sec 0-60mph? would it not be better to get a realistice performance figure like 30-130mph, i beleive there is some new events held for these realistic performance. fwd will never be as good as 4wd or rwd for off the line traction no matter what you do to it.

that maybe true but with a sub 6sec 0-60 before a remap and other few bits. Surely the first thing you would wan to do is break the 5.5sec!

in that case just make 4.8 secs!

Lets keep it realistic.. you are gonna struggle to beat 5sec in a FWD

If you can do it in 5.66 with no mods... i would expect 5.5 to be quite achieveable with an extra 50bhp and a carbon fibre bonnet and a few other mods... i am sure Hurdy will fill you in when he catches up with this thread.

Yup, R32UK is right. I made 5.66 secs 0-60mph last year at Inters completely standard. 5.5 should be easy with mods.
I guess we'll have to see this year at Inters as I know that there will be at least 5 modded ED30's there and Awesomes GTI too.  a 5 second 0-60 is probably a bit over-ambitious even for the Awesome car.

The only way to get the power down better is to have sticky track rubber and even then you'd have to still feed in the power.
