You will find it on the sidewall , imprinted in a rectangle eg: [0713] , 7th week of 2013.
Its just another thing to check , but Id be surprised if they are old.
Your camber is fine , anywhere near factory levels will cook the shoulders when pushing it hard though..
All nerdiness aside ha , how much experience do you have with other brands of tyres on the same track/conditions ?
The R888 although not the best , is still a really good tyre ... but being straight out of the box and comparing it to softer compound A048s that have been heat cycled with shallow thread isn't going to be really fair.
As they wear ( and once heat cycled right ) , they should improve a bit so dont lose hope yet lol.
Thanks for the advice, hopefully you are right! I'm going to put the fronts on the rear now seen as I've worn a fair bit of tread off.
I went out and put 1 heat cycle through them 48hours before the track day.
Experience with the track is zero, first time out on that track, so I guess it could be the track?
Tyres experience on this car is only t1r part worn a048s and these 888.
