^^Those have been NLA for a couple years now.
I've put 2.5 sets of the R888Rs on my '88 since last spring. I'm running 225/45s in front on 8" wheels and 245/45s on the 9" rears and I love the grip. My car is otherwise pretty much stock and we have had a blast not giving much up to better cars.
I've driven on them from Arkansas to LA twice and yes they are noisy, especially as they age, but it's fine with the windows down as God intended. We put a set on my wife's 997 4S (235 & 305) and they are 3x louder in that car.
They are definitely a little hairy in standing water. I inadvertently drove through some snow going up and down Donner pass headed to Luft5. That was terrifying AF.
I'll probably try out the Yokos next go around, probably in the Spring before I do another rallye or cross-country trip to Luft7.
