Default OT: Toyo R888 225/265 x 18" wanted in UK

Sorry to post this here but I am looking for a set of Toyos to use as wets for my 993RS and as drys for the 964 Cup, however there are no new ones available before the end of September. If anyone has a fresh set (preferably nicely scrubbed, not sha**ed) without wheels going spare can you please get in touch?

Now that's short notice. I'll get the owner's name and address when I get home from work and refer him to you.

FYI I just raced these for the first time this last weekend on my vintage Fiat and was not impressed. I have been running the RA1's for a the last year. Maybe the air pressures don't work for both but another vintage 911 racer walked by and said "Oh, I see you got the tires nobody likes"?

Interesting, I just started with a new set, same sizes on my C2 at Thunderbolt. I found them to be superior to the RA1's. Actually couldn't be happier so far after nearly 350 track miles this weekend. Everyone I know loves them.
