no

Had issues with them rubbing on lock and have had to have the rear of the arch shaved. Now they only just touch on full lock.

I couldn't find 225s in 18's when I bought them.

Good man. i'll go for it then. 225's are rocking horse poo poo. I note you are going to do a bit sprinting? you chosen your venue for your debut?

In the TVRCC Championship, yes. Goodwood. Have done other stuff, just not with the TVRCC boys and girls. Having said that, how much help 888s are when you get 1 lap with cold tyres, Im not so sure
