Quieter than the old 888, but not quiet. Worse nvh than roadtires but acceptable. Can't say anything about wear, but they are quite durable on track.

Hi Howard.
That is a very interesting tyre.
I've now read the technical stuff.
Maximum grip both wet and dry!
That's been the impossible duality in the past.

Interesting. As almost all other tyres are one, or the other.
And driving to and from track days is a concern if you've just got legal slicks on the car.

Thanks for the heads up on that one Howard.

Regards.
Rich.
