If your going for Toyo's, try and get the T1-S.

I found the T1-R didn't grip as well as the S.

I have had the goodyears, toyos and the uniroyals out of that list.

forget the falkens, better known as 'ditch finders'

the uniroyals are the best on that list. grip in the wet is unreal compared to any other tyre I have tried.
