The picture seems to show the R888Rs are a little smaller in diameter than the stock tires. Do you have any idea how much smaller? I tried to look the number up on the Tire Rack web site but that section of the spec sheet is blank for both the 315 and 335.

Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered a set of 315/335 for some time attack events this year. Hoping the R888R is sticky enough to contend for the win.

appreciate the heads up.
Best price I've seen on R888R in Z51 sizes.
ready to order but concerned about manufacturing date.
Return policy indicates they will accept returns for tires over 4 years old. Unacceptable to me.
I would not accept any tire over 2 years old
Anyone have any experience?

Here's the press release from October 2017 launching the R888R's. Hopefully this helps others as well. I've read some racing reviews and these look to be a great tire for us.

How do these compare to cup2's for grip and tire life?

I just had full set of the R888R's in stock sizes mounted on a second set of OEM wheels for my Z51
Track only, Probably won't get to use them till June.
Ordered them from Simple tire for 15% discount and free shipping. Their execution was flawless in every way. Total came to $1214 with tax, delivered to my installer in 4 days
Manufacturing codes were 2617 to 4217
