Toyo T1R

Not sure on these, i heard rave reviews, and i was mega happy when i found a set of alloys on ebay with a receipt for the new tyres fitted a week before (still had the white stuff all over them from when they were fitted)

In the snow and ice they were nasty, i had a MK4 astra at the time, i touched the pedal and went flying nearly into a phone exchange!!

In the dry thy were very good, very sticky and grippy, certainly better than the stupid budgets on before them!!

Might very them again one day, maybe in the summer!!

Good mid range tyre, it is however let down by the poor wear rate. I have had these on two cars that were driven fairly hard, and they lasted about 10K miles. There are better tyres out there for a similar price.

This is my third set

I love those tyres! Just buying new again.

After trying out Goodyear & Michelin, I find the TOYO-T1R gives the best ultimate grip levels. The tradeoff is they wear out faster than others, but as they are priced mid-level, more frequent replacement doesn't necessarily mean more expense.
Maybe sidewall twist under cornering gives fractionally less precision than some others, but its barely noticeable.
They can aquaplane, even when new, in deep water but I'm not sure any others would be any better. Grip on ice is also v poor, but that's not unexpected for a summer tyre.
Overall I'm happy with this tyre and have bought about 8 now.

very comfortable & silent for a performance tyre. Very good dry grip. Although pricing may be a bit off the budge. Overall opinion - Worth the money spend.

Great tyres. Reduced the understeer from the nose heavy 330d compared to the michelin pilot sports originally fitted when I bought the car. Very good grip wet or dry and great in combination with upgraded redstuff brakes. Would and have bought again.

Brilliant grip in the dry, good grip in the wet and great response.

I got these tyres as a replacement to the Hankook Ventus tyres that were on the car and what a difference they have made.

Would definitely consider buying these tyres again. They have been on the car now for four thousand miles and they have barely worn down at all.

Pros: The best value for money tyres I ever had, better than my previous Turanzas ER300 that where very good but expensive.
Although they are sports tyres and not turing they are more quite than the Turanzas
Rim protecting profile
Very responsive

Cons: Slippery on surfaces that are neither dry or wet (during summer rains).
When on light gravel and then back on tarmac the car feels like on high hills! I actually have to use a flat screw driver to get all the small stones stuck in the tred
