TOYO 888R Semi Slick Tyres

Fitted here in two extremely wide fitment sizes for maximum footprint, 305/30ZR19 rear and 265/30ZR19 front, the 888R is Toyo’s semi slick racing tyre for fast road and track day use.

Ideal for use on these tarmac shredding race cars. Developed for the track, these tyres deliver supreme dry handling. Enhanced steering feel and higher stability on the throttle means drivers can carry higher speeds through corners for faster lap times.

With faster cornering and a longer lasting more consistent performance. The 888R helps deliver fast lap times and allows drivers to get the most out of their high performance machines.

You may have seen these tyres used in motorsport events and in conjunction with extreme sports events. Several Hoonicorns, as driven by the late-great Ken Block, have also made use of these incredible high performance tyres.

The tyres have also been a major factor in many hill climbing event wins and other extreme performance events.

SR Autobodies R32-GTR- Calsonic Racer

Established by Steve Richardson, SR Autobodies are specialists in Nissan chassis parts and body repairs and are able to carry out custom modifications and upgrades to suit their clients needs.

It would be easy to assume that SR Autobodies is named after Steve’s initials. In truth, the name refers to the cars they specialise in. The cars are better know by their chassis references, S-bodied Silvias and R-bodied Skylines.

GT-Rs now account for almost all of Steve’s workload as the popularity of them has grown. They have a national if not global reputation for producing some of the best GTR race cars and restorations.

Every component removed is either replaced, repaired or zinc plated. Many Japanese cars of the era were originally built without the use of any rustproofing or underseal, there are also some fundamental design flaws in all Skylines which Steve and his team set out to upgrade and rectify.

SR Autobodies also has quite a large following on many social media platforms that feature their projects with over 14k followers on Facebook and 23k followers on Instagram.

Over the years, Bush tyres have supplied many sets of TOYO 888R Tyres to SR Autobodies for their projects. It’s always great to see these tyres used as the manufacturer intended, on some of the world’s best high-performance track and fast road cars.

If you want to try Toyo 888R tyres on your fast road or Track Day car, call into one of our local branches for up-to-date pricing and availability.

The TOYO £500 holiday voucher competition is running all through September and October ’23. Any one or more Toyo tyres purchased from their entire product range to get your chance to win.
