Default Toyo R888R

I have a 600 whp C7, I was wondering if anyone has any issues leaving the factory run flats up front and using Toyo R888Rs in the rear?

The car felt like it was swaying side to side at 120+

R888R is a very sticky tire. You will create horrible understeer if you corner hard. I can’t get my R889R to spin in first gear at 10 mph in my Grandsport. I can drift at half throttle on run flats. Not a good combo.
