run them on a 205 gti and would easily beat most things off the mark in the dry but when the rain comes even a spot you need to be a very very brave man or women to even attempt a corner. I remove them around late October for better tyres in the rain.

Writing about the Toyo T1R given 63% (195-45-15-W)
Driving on track for 3000 spirited miles
I've fitted T1R's to all 4 corners of my road legal track 205 despite being told to buy the R888's... however, numerous people have been suprised on a dry track just how well the T1R's carry my little rocket out of the corners of Silverstone and Rockingham. They're alright in the wet but I don't really drive in the wet as the car fills up with water which is uncomfortable. for general road use they're really good IMO and I haven't managed to scare myself on the public highway unlike my previous Contact Sport 2's which lasted all of 5 minutes and 1 backward out of a corner incident. The 205 is known for it's tendancy to catch you out with lift off oversteer but these give you enough of a feel to correct the car's pace and direction before you end up in the tyre wall/hedge etc... Road noise is aweful but i have no interior so I suspect that is the car and not the tyre. Wheel spin is something I have to live with when not on track because the engine only has 2 settings, go and off so i don't think any tyre could actually keep this from spinning seeing as it has no ECU, ABS, ESP etc... or any other boring safety features. Good tyre, have lasted 2 track sessions with 3000 miles in between and passed it lastest MOT with them, can't be bad for ?45 per edge!!
