just recently purchased myself a c20let nova
ive put my rl7s on fitted with toyo t1r but can already smell them melting abit so just after some advise on what people run
Melting? On the road? Or are you tracking it?
Are you going to use it throughout winter or in poor weather? If not some R888s should see you right.

Another vote for r888's here.
R888 are amazing tyres but yoko ad08's are basically as good but a decent bit cheaper. I run them on mine and they hold 300+ bhp pretty damn well considering its fwd and weighs about the same as shoebox lol. Both of the tyres are deadly in the wet so I'd avoid if your gonna use over winter etc.
Try r1rs
T1 toyos are worse than your linglongwooooos on the audi

well starting to melt the edge off ha ha, tracking fine as already adjusted it all and set it perfect :) think its just where the t1r is so soft
Pics? I'm still not convinced they're melting.
I'm running R1Rs, highly recommended, heard somewhere they're discontinued for the new R888R though?
TR1's are ace, but very soft. So you'll melt them quick if you lighting the tyres up alot.
Once warm they are a great gripping tyre. I've had them for ages on mine..

Put of the fun.

Couldn't agree more! It's not like you aint motivating while your spinning either. Can't beat a nova let for smiles per £. You get a super lightweihht 80s/90s retro shell with basically super car performance.
