Given 80% (breakdown) while driving a MINI Cooper S Works (205-40-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
I have to say I cannot believe TOYO discontinued this tyre. For the money it is excellent. Perfect feel and balance and awesome dry grip. Wet grip is also very good but would be dependant on the type of car you have.

Mine is pretty torquey but on say a NA car that produces peak torque higher you will probably find these more suitable.

Wear is very good, feel through the steering wheel excellent and gorgeous tread pattern. Bring them back!!

Given 81% (breakdown) while driving a Vauxhall 1.4 auto mk3 (195-50-15-V)
Driving on mostly country roads for 10,000 spirited miles
Vastly better tyre that replaced it(T1R).
All in all a very safe predictable tyre, that won't catch you out, though takes a good few miles(500) before they grip thier best, very quiet tyre too, had the T1R afterwards, which was a flop in my opinion, bring back the S model

Given 64% (breakdown) while driving a Toyota Celica GT4 (225-45-17-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 7,000 spirited miles
Wear rate is far too high.
Beyond that, A good and mostly underrated performance tyre. Though leaves me feeling like there's more can be had maybe, and so will be trying something else next time....but only out of curiosity.

Takes forever to run the tyres in. About 100 miles of atrociously low grip levels. Then suddenly, the tyre came into it's own.

Managed the journey to and from the nurburgring. And 3 quick laps of it, with very little complaint. Lots of feedback. And you really know when they were going to let go.

Given 80% (breakdown) while driving a Toyota MK1 MR2 SC (195-50-15-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4,000 spirited miles
weak side walls.

Nice rim protection for alloys.

You'll have to drive recklessly for these to let you down wet or dry. High degree of confidence. Very good traction. Exceptional wear/performance tyre for very reasonable price.

Driving on mostly country roads for 15,000 average miles
Fairly average tyre but fairly cheap so no real surprise!

Get what you pay for I guess.
