Most racers are moving away from the R888 back to the RA1 again...
The R888 has been a HUGE disappointment for everybody!!!don't buy them

That tire does not look suitable for the street at all. Unless you live in Phoenix and never see rain.

Correct, this is NOT a street tire...

I didn't think they made RA-1s in 19 inch. If they do where can I get them?

I don't see a 19" RA1 listed anywhere, 18" is the largest that I am aware or.

Angan, RA1 and R888 are race tires, not street tires
