Writing about the Toyo R888
rated 40%
These came with the car, I quickly put its original wheels on and got some normal premium road tires.
Superb dry cornering grip.
Make a loud howling noise.
No comfort whatsoever.
Make the car feel heavy.

Writing about the Primewell PZ900

This is the worst tire I've had the misfortune of experiencing. These are dangerous tires
Came on the car when I bought it, the grip was unbelievably terrible. Car was standard, and was caught out when the tires span up in 3rd gear @ 70mph. This happened on many occasions. Couldn't go full throttle in 1st or 2nd gear as grip was nonexistent. I couldn't enjoy the car at all.
In the wet the car was just flat out scary, extremely unpredictable.
There was 0 feedback, you could never tell what they would do.
Luckily the tires only lasted 5k miles before they were totally bald and needed replacing.
My brother who also had a 300zx got his with Pirelli p600s (aka the ditch finders) and he said these were even worse than they were, which is saying a lot.
They were replaced with thinner 235 Goodyear eagle f1 as2 and the difference was unbelievable. The car was amazing to drive, loads if feedback, wet and dry grip was great. Soon moving to 245/265 as2s.
There is no way I could recommend this tire to anyone at all.
