I can source these tyres quite cheap in Cyprus, and i think i have heard people saying they are quite good, so i am close to ordering a set but dont want to go jumping in until i get some confirmation.

The sizes i can get are ... 225/40/18 88w... front
265/35/18 93w... rear

Are these sizes and ratings ok for the Noble? I am running 1.5 deg neg (front) and 2 deg neg (rear).
How do these tyres compare to the likes of the Toyo R888 for track use?

I'm having trouble finding RSR tyres from a cheaper source than demon tweaks.

Let us know who use use in the end Chris.

Cheers for the feedback Bondy, i was pretty sure but just needed some confirmation before i ordered them, i have ordered a set 720Euro, pretty cheap for what they are, not sure how much a set would cost in the Uk though, but generally they are usually more expensive in cyprus, they should be getting delivered this afternoon, so tomorrow i will be back at the track to test them out, do i need to run them in before track use?

I would have said best do a few miles on them before going mad.

Would the people you got them from ship to the uk?

Going all out on your hunt for Loti aren't we? :P

I tried to look for reviews for the Federal's but not much info online. They're definitely going to be be an upgrade from regular performance tires though (like the Pilot Sports and Contisports) and the price is very keen. I got Yokohama AD08s on mine and am extremely happy with their performance but they cost almost twice as much for a set of 4!
