Socal: 2x Toyo R888 235/45R17
 

FS: Pair of Toyo R888 235/45R17

**SOLD - Kosei K6R 17x8 17x9 5x100 - Toyo R888 275/40R17**

Up for sale is an almost new set of light weight Japanese racing wheels and R-compound tires. The wheels and tires were purchased as a set from the Tire Rack August of last year, with tires dated 07th week of 2015. I have done 3 autocrosses and maybe 500 miles of freeway driving commuting to the events, so they have little wear (5 out of 6/32nd new).

While the K6R is slightly heavier than the RPF1, it's a much stronger design. Just search RPF1 flex and you'll see what I'm referring to. These wheels are also flow formed, which makes them stronger than traditional low pressure casting.

The R888 has very high amounts of grip, just shy of dedicated racing tires, such as the Hoosier A7. They run wide, so a 235 has almost the same contact patch as a 255 street tire, and a 275 has about the same tread width as a 295 street tire.

I used this setup on a supercharged FR-S. The reason for the staggering is because of the OEM Torsen's high lockup ratio. The car was set up from the factory to slide the rear end out, so along with boost, the much wider rear tire really helps to keep the car settled. The 235 fits in the front fenders well without rubbing liners or requiring pulling fenders. The reason I'm selling is because the car is my daily driver, and I don't plan on autocrossing the car at all this year. No point of having it sit.

Any pics on the car?

I would just use the Tire Rack configurator to see how they look on the car. I don't have any photos unfortunately, since I've had these wheels and tires for such a short amount of time.

Please make an offer! They're just taking up room for me.

Any interest? Willing to ship.

Would you sell the 2 17x9s separate? They discontinued these and TireRack only has 2 left, maybe 3. AWP also has 2-3 left but at full price. I am looking for 17x9 all around.

Still have the studs? set of 4? will send you a PM

Studs and spacers sold!

Hi again. So. About separating wheels, yay or nay?

I'm trying to keep things in a set as much as possible. It would be very difficult to sell everything else if I just part out one wheel. Thanks.

Interested. If these are not sold in 2 months or so. PM me

Still for sale

Do these fit on the FRS without using spacers? No rubbing and full steering range?
