r's look like they wear better as they have a better pattern on the edge that doesnt look bald after 3k! unlike the old T1-S

i've got t1r's on my pug, everyone says toyo's are shit because they wear fast but but mine are spot on and my route to uni, which i'm generally in a hurry to get to after getting up late, is packed with roundabouts.

I think they give lots of feedback and it's easy to tell when they are about to let go. I tried pushing them vhard on a few rounabouts and they offer good grip.
However I'm not so sure in the wet, a lot more vague than the original SP9000's but still a good amount of grip.

i reckon they are decent, with my corsa on 15's standard springs with koni shocks the handling is really very good.
you can really feel thats going on and what sorta grip you want

they are a good budget tyre, I used them for years. then i tried Uniroyal rainsports and they make the toyo seem very average.

Have them on th clio, cant fault them for a budget tyres, but as said copmpaed to F1's and rainsports they not in the same league, but not abad choice.
Try yoko A539's in the wet/cold, scary as (but very good for trackdays)

A did think the t1s were good tyres like but heard the t1Rs were better. They have to be better than the tyres a have on the now Ventus HRII H405 a dont advise anyone to buy them they suck.
