I'm not sure what an R8 is. If you meant Toyo R-888, I would reconsider. I ran them this year, unshaved they were "squirmey", after they wore in they were O.K. Then they heat cycled out. This all occurred in 10 track days (several advanced days). I would go with Larry's recommendation of the Nitto NT-01 or the "re-introduced" Toyo RA1 if it is available in your size. That being said, I'm going to try MPSC.
