The only reason I don't run R888s everywhere is that they have instituted that hard tires (200+ TW) be used at most of the events.
But a tire like the R888 or RA1 is perfectly fine for street use.
I've driven them in the rain and shine.. great tires - they just wear out quicker. My guess is that you could get 10,000 miles of them just cruising around. Track time would shorten that.
Oh, and they are NOT to be used in freezing temp.. the softer rubber might crack - a bad think to have happen!
