Just put a new set on the Griff.

Heard a rumour that Toyo are changing their marketing/pricing on their Motorsport range pretty soon.

Apparently the focus will be on selling these tyres predominantly at motorsport venues. Retailers will still be able to get them, but at a significantly higher price than currently offered.

In my experience buying anything at a track (from burgers to fuel!) is expensive - can't imagine it'll be any different for a set of 888s frown

I know Toyo can do whatever they like with their distribution chain, but I'm not happy - if they go ahead I'm sure I won't be the only person who'll have to consder the alternatives when my current ones are gone (in about 6 months if we have a good summer!) laugh
