Neil have you looked at the Direazza's they are great tyres and last longer than the 888.  :happy2:

Yoko A048s are quite popular in 225/40/18. Have you tried Tweeks? Barter them down too, they'll generally knock 10% off.

Neil, I'd be tempted to get a set of 4 'other' and keep the 888s until you can lay your hands on another pair.

Thanks for the help guys, especially liver & Mat who put me on to some new 888's on Pistonheads, just picked them up  :happy2:

Turned out to be Dan Rose, leading the Vag Trophy in his Seat, (their allowed to use slicks this year).

Defiantly going to try some of your suggestions when these are shot, which wont be long  :smiley:
