Toyo R888, do these still have life?
I was out at the track today and had a guy offer these tires to me that they were no longer using. I am currently running PS2's on the track but am planning on moving up to r-comps next season. The tires are 275/35/18 and measure about 2-3mm of tread depth but being unfimliar with r-comps I am not sure if these still have any life in them. Here is a picture--
 ]Thanks

Eh, I would probably pass on those. Seems like they have been flipped and grip may have decreased severely and thats why he wants to pass them on. Maybe someone else can chime in though. I have no experience with these tires.

They are probably heat cycled out if they were worn from full tread depth to that... so they're probably usable... just less grippy.

still much better than ps2's on the track. I've used PS2's and even re-01r's are noticeably grippier.
