Are these better than GY eagle Assy 2's?  :popcornsoda:
Yes...when dry  :happy2:
Pretty lame in the wet by all accounts.  So not really a tyre for our UK climate, unless its prodominately track work then...
Are the 888's better? :popcornsoda:
NS about the 888's. I run Sumitomo HTR Z III's in Oregon's damp season(8 to 9 months)...also, just a tad damp ;p
I run SS's on a spare set of wheels for the track/dry season.
My Sumi's are quite nice regardless if it's rain or shine.

Supersports are amazing in the wet.  Better than the goodyears.  You cant compare the SS's to R888's.  Totally different. SS's are not a track day tyre. 

You must be thinking of the Pilot Sport Cups?

I think he means Cups too, I certainly haven't died in the wet yet.

If the Eagles are better in the wet I will stick with them.

No Super Sports on test there either though.  Those are PS3's.

I have 235/35/19 Supersports and they are by far the best tyres I've used in the wet, it's really surprising how well they grip.

Even though they aren't a Track day tyre the SS can hold their own on track, i won't mind using them on track again, they were phenominal at Donington when i was there  :happy2:
