    I ran a mixed set-up of old R888's and bridgestone RE55s, the bridgestones were significantly better than the R888's. Though they were both old tyres with lots of heat cycles so the only take away is that the RE55's handled the heat cycles and age much better than the R888's.

    I now run Kumho V70's in a medium. I have shagged one on a single afternoon from over heating. From the reviews, they seem popular amongst the hill climbers and have 3 compounds pending size. If the price is right (based on your research and expectations), I'd try the Nitto's.

    Thanks Sean. I got some scary prices for the kumho's a while back but that was for 16's. I'm going to be running 205/50/15 and maybe 195's on the back which should be cheaper, so i'll re visit the kumho option. If that doesn't happen then it'll be the Nitto's. They are only $200 a tyre in my size atm!
