Compare R888 versus ContiForceContact
Has anyone tried both these tires, to be able to get a good personal comparison?
I have used the R888, and really think they are a great compromise tire,
for Street, Autocross, and HPDE.
But they don't have the sizes I want for my C7 Z51 (getting wider wheels),
so I have to get 295x30x19 front, and 315x30x20 rear.
But I want something with a little less diameter in the rear.
Say 305x30x19, and 305x30x20,
I see the ContiFC has exactly the sizes I want, and they are comparable to R888.
So... has anyone actually tried both, and what are your feelings.
Thanks

Luke,
yes, I already have visited your site, and have checked out that comparison.
But it was for a BMW M3.... I would like something from Corvette people,
so I am asking here.
But let me ask you......
I have run 5 years with R888 (on my C6), and I really like them.
Will the Conti be as good (generally speaking), or better, or worse,
overall?
Also, there is a dramatic price difference between R888 and Conti.
