Tyres for my Griff!

[Griffrich]

Hi All,

I'm looking to get some spare tyres for the Griff, I have a set of Toyo T1R's on std estorils at the mo and I have a full second set of estorils ready to be refurbed, so what tyres would be good to put on this second set? I'm thinking of the 888's for summer use, does anyone have any experience of these? i.e are they downright dangerous during an unexpected rain shower? I was initially thinking of another set of T1R's so I can refurb the originals but this seems like a wasted opportunity to have two tyre options to easily swap over. What would others do?

Cheers in advance
Rich.

Cheers chaps, Jesfirth can you tell me what the R888's are like? I don't do track days in the griff at the mo so are the 888's a bit overkill on the road?
I've got a 500 Griff so think I need the 225 width at the front rather than 205. Any further options other than an additional set of T1R's?

Thanks again
Rich.

Good thread chaps!
It sounds like the Uniroyal RS3's have a good rep BUT they're only available in 205 width fronts rather than 225 which my PAS 500 requires, is there an issue with using the narrower front tyre on a pas griff 500?
