The car feels even smoother just turning. These just stick to the road like glue and I can drive in the wet like i normally do in the dry and the hold the road just as well
Fantastic buy, an absolute steal if your alloys are the same size. I got all 4 tyres for £200 delivered
IMO these are probably some of the best bang for buck tyres on the market, I wouldn't hesitate to buy these next next time, excellent.

Sorry for my horrible English. Unbeliveable tyres. A bit noisy. Very soft and because of that excelent road feedback, very fun to drive with them, replaced Continental Premium Contact 2 with them I spined and crash my fiesta, my tucking fault, maybe Conties, I think btw. Super grip in dry, very fast on operating temperature. Superior grip when they are hot, if you push them they squitch prety soon on hot day but just asking for more and more. Excelent control of car with handbrake in circual crossroads in town. There is 5 circual crossroads in my town and belive me, ok this one is biger but i was driving 90 - 95 Kmh with ease through out. When wet, did not try the limits in cornering but on straight with ease 190 Kmh (heavy raining in suburbs) playing with aquaplaning even at 100 Kmh (no raining in town). After 15000 miles on legal limit of tread. Now I have 23000 and still driving them. Look like semi slick now (can send pictures if someone want :-)sandro_papic@yahoo.com or see video on facebook) (deported from neighbour country Slovenia because of slicks). No such road feedback, no squtching in corners now (you dont know where is the limit especialy if u are not familiar to car) as in start. Driving like my granny in wet, no over 70 Kmh. My personal conclusion: tyres made for cars with high power engines to bring power on road when needed, but it was fun to have them on pretty normal fiesta and have so much of reserve in every aspect of driving. Would buy them again but price is much higher as back then in 2007. (stupid sellers!!) I am replacing them this month (only first 2) with bridgestone turanza ER300 for the same money i gave for toyo in 2007. Will post reviev about and hope that will enyoy and they will cope with me much as toyo did...

I find these to be reasonable middle of the range tyre. There are better but there are worse. Im impressed with the wet grip, which is better than i expected but not as good as ive had with some tyres. I was also surprised at their grip in the snow, i was easily passing other cars which were stuck. I do find they wear quite quickly and even after several attempts by tyre fitters to balance them they are still not perfect. One seems to be distorting. I wont be buying these tyres again, wear too fast and are quite average, they also look a little plasticy in the rubber compund.

I have bought full set of tires for my Astra GTC. It was a big dilemma, but Toyo was my final decision. After driving them in very different conditions, from track days to very rainy trips, I can say this is one of the best tire I've ever drive. It has excellent grip on dry roads, even at the limid. The Y-design is perfect for wet roads. Maybe the only one negative feature is faster wear. This tire is highly recommended for sporty cars and hot hatches with a lot of power, and for drivers with a lot of fuel in their veins.
