Do you have any other sizes? I can't run 335s at all four corners, so I would also need fronts.
I do run 18X10 fronts and 18X11 rears.

I used RA1's all last season, and they are in fact awesome.

I beg to differ on the RA1 vs R888 they are NOT the same.

The RA1 are worth a second or more, grip better and are a more aggressive turn in.
The R888 are a bit slower, have a better wet tread and are less aggressive turn in.

So why ever get one vs the other?

RA1 burn off fast! You get 2 weekends on RA1, maybe 3 if its a nice track.. you are very good at tire maintence and you flip them on teh rims between wekeends (run treads backwards)

R888 will get you more track days per tire hands down over the RA1.

So R888 is more cost effective but slower.

Have fun shopping, this is friggin fantastic deal!!!!!!

why does the toyo site not list the RA1 in the size 335 30 18? Is there another
spec sheet somewhere?
