indeed, I am not yet convinced I need to have heavy 255s either
I went with r888 in 225 also 8.7" wide contact patch, 24lbs combined with a 15.5 lbs rim will be plenty quick, should have enough stickyness. Lets see if it can exit corners now.
255s offer up an inch more width, but does it benefit me, or slow me down, remains to be seen. Only want as much tires as the chassis will take advantage of.
