4 tyres fitted to 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX. Bought to replace part worn (4-5mm) Bridgestone RE050A at 16000 miles. The Goodyears are fantastic, you could be driving on dry roads in a downpour, road noise is about as low as it gets and the comfort has to be feeled to be believed. Not sure about wear rates at 3000 miles but I have today measured the depth of all 4 tyres.. Front 7mm - 8mm Rear.

Greats tyres. Just fitted them to my WRX. The only comparable tyre i have driven on would be yoko's. The toyo TR-1 gives a lot more confidence in the cars handling. Where some tyres sweak on bends, the TR1's make a really cool scrooossh noise (like darh vader breahing lol).. you can literally hear it gripping the road. very impressive. Great in wet too.

Only had the tyres for about 2 months now but the difference can be felt instantly. These tyres are simply amazing, they make the tyres I previously had (Toyo T1-S) feel very average . The dry grip is fantastic, but in the wet they are untouchable. The tyres make the car hugely exploitable in the bends and perhaps offer more sheer grip than handling but still approach their limit with no fuss making it obvious when you are pushing too hard. All in all it feels like a new car, handles like its on rails, just wish they were available in more sizes but I suppose they will come in time. Would definitely buy again.

This is probably the best tyre for the Subaru Impreza STI, it gives very good feedback, has excellent grip in the dry and good grip in the wet, greasy surfaces are a little interesting but the car does slide predicably.
These tyres like heat, put them out in snow and your going to hit something, they are a summer tyre only, not keen on sub zero temps so I would suggest a set of winter tyres in the colder seasons.
Solid sidewalls give excellent feedback but have a compromise with increased road noise and some tramlining (though newer sets seem better than the originals)
Excellent all round tyre.

This is my first Scooby and first 4 wheel drive so not sure what to expect for wear. Delighted to get 30K miles from the RE050 on an even mix of A road, B road and motorway driving.

An excellent Fast road tyre especially in the dry, better than average in the wet.
Comparing the RS2 to previous tyres fitted to my car they are a much better option to the Bridgestone RE050 and Toyo Proxes T1S.
Provided better grip under all conditions on fast A roads and the Track.
A great value for money tyre that some may overlook at their cost.
