For anybody that has had actual experience with these tires what do you think of them. Haven't sold much of any of these so looking for outside opinion. I am interested in straight line in gear acceleration from a roll specifically but will gladly appreciate any experience. Note these are for a gen v viper which will be around 600/600 whp/wtq roughly.

Pirelli pzero corsa system- $900
toyo R888- $1400
Hoosier R7_ $1800

Pirellis are great around corners and get nice and sticky when the are heated up. However, I would say that they aren't great for straight line stuff.

The toyos r888s are great in corners just like pirellis and I feel they have better straight line performance.

I have no experience with Hoosier r7s.

Another tire you might want to check out which I feel is more sticky than the r888 is the nitto NT01. The trade off is that they wear faster than the r888.

I believe paintless302 rides with toyo R888 for his full bolt on gen IV Viper. Sneakysnakes is his youtube name, has a bunch of roll on races.

I dont see him post much but his car surprises a lot of people for an NA car.

I have R888 on my Z06. They are noisy above 50 MPH, but I hook in every gear so I'll take it.
