[QUOTE="enormous, post: 16412321, member: 136191"] I am on my second set of 325 30 20 S Cup 2 on an widened Boze 11 3/8" rim. I happen to like them. I have been in a Shelby with the R888 and the Cup 2's are somewhat quieter to my ears, a plus. If you don't abuse the Cup 2 tire life is good, better than my friends R888 life I found. Your ABS will be fine. As for rain, I found the Cup 2 safe in the rain in corner carving winding roads as long as you drive normal and not make a stupid move . I hit LOTS of unexpected rain conditions and never had an issue with my Cup 2 out back, even drove many hrs straight in rain...your right foot sensible input is key. The Cup 2's do NOT perform when cold or on cold pavement I might add. Since I don't drag race or Auto Cross I found the Cup 2's handle high speed corners with confidence when HOT, no issue noted. The R888 may grip somewhat better gripping in second gear roll racing than the Cup 2 as I spun mine in second quite a few times at 740 RWHP and 730 TQ....expected, but I was prepared. My honest 2 cents. Up front I run 255 35 20 Michelin 4S without complaint. I removed the bump stop bracket and shock boot only [/QUOTE]
