Toyo 888 pressures on track

Post by TrackScotland »

Interesting to to see what people prefer :)

I'm trying to get Fee to experiment and find pressures she likes/is happy with.... but i tend to run about 29psi cold, 33psi hot....

That seems quite low to others..... I know the car and driving 'style' can alter things

Thoughts???

I havent run them yet myself.

I read somewhere that Toyo will be there dishing out advice.

I've run the 888's for a couple of seasons and I'm still working on that!!

Probably best to speak to the guys themselves Adam but I 'like' 28psi cold and 33psi when up to temps. The car is 1010kgs for reference.

For an Impreza 30 Psi hot...
so around 25 cold for mine....

Taken from Zen & RCM.....

Toyo told me 40 Psi hot, but my testing has shown thats too much...

Another good thing about TA, everyone is welling to help, offer advise and share a few tips!!
