The wheels came with 245/35/18 and 285/30/18. How they compare to Toyo 888's I don't know. On track you needed to make a maximum of 30psi. Used to start them off around 21/22 cold. Anything over 30 and the car would start to get very loose. They come standard with 6mm tread and some used to buff them down to 3mm or less as they would move around on the tread blocks. More recently they ran them in the Ferrari Marenello Challenge but I don't even
know if they are still available.

How about the Audi RS4.
