Car looks great. Very nice. What kind of tracking do you do? AutoX? Road course?

The car is smooth as glass.
I have owned countless wheel & tire setup's but this package road forced & balanced out the best I have ever seen.
They balanced out .50 .50 .75 & .00, one wheel needed zero weights.
They road forced .6 .6 .9. & .11.

I just put on R888R's. 295/30/19 on the front. I lowered it all the way down on factory bolts and now I'm rubbing. Are you lowered all the way?

It's hard to tell in the photos but what finish is it? I was thinking of getting the CF5 in gloss gunmetal (I have a shark gray Z06) and yours look awesome!

I'm guessing the taller tire helps fill up the wheel well.

Very nice OP. How is the noise of the R888s? I heard they were noisy passed 80mph.

I am ordering an exact set of these tires and sizes. Is all still good with the front ? I heard one user day they rubbed a bit.

like I said I the other thread. RPM is running the older 888's as I am now with no issues. The new 888R runs bigger and has a different shaped sidewall and rubs bad.

I have gathered from research that the R888R is larger then then R888.... I may need to look at a different front now
