Ran 888's with 34 psi hot at the front and 32 at the rear. This is what the Toyo tech guy said for me at Knockhill, I think they needed a tad more pressure in the front as my neg camber is not huge.

I had mine at 28psi hot at donny, toyo guy reconed should have been closer to 35psi which surprised me a bit..

I ran 2.5deg of camber at the front and had a fair bit of understeer, I've read up on the original specs (on slicks) and they used to run 4deg!

Not sure if you should run the same on r888's as slicks?

Have you measured your tyre temperatures/across tyres after a session?
I was thinking of trying this next time with temp probe or ir gun to see as the toyo rep reconed I would be able to see if the car had the right amount of camber...
