Can't fault Toyo T1-R mate 8)

Especially now the good old British summer is over

Mine will be going back on soon, it's time to put the AO48's away for the winter :muhaha:

I have a set of T1-Rs myself , but have not used them yet as i dont have the evo to put them on :shock:

But i bought them cos the general consenses was that they were a good alround tyre .

Will let you know in a few weeks what i think of them :muhaha:

many say the newer r toyo is inferior to the s as on the r the sidewalls flex really badly.there has been no end of bad reports on the r

Myself and Baz have been running them for a while, and even tracked on them :shock:

I'm impressed with them, a really good all rounder

Knocks spots off the T1-S imho

Would this depend on what size/profile you have or is it the same for any size of this particular model?

Thank fook for that , if they are good enough for you they are good enough for me

Nearly chucked them into the fire to keep warm then

I think people expect too much from it tbh, because Toyo list it as their High Performance tyre :???:

I bought the AO48's in spring, ready for the track season, and if i'm honest, i find them CRAP!!!!, yet others swear by them :???: But after running Dunlop's DO1J last year, i think they will take some beating :muhaha:

At the end of the day, it's all down to individual driving style

Every tyre has it's weak point, but as an all rounder, the T1-R is the dogs for the money

In the wet, it is just plain awesome 8)

Paul, don't worry mate, i think you'll like

Nice one waggs , the only use mine will have is a bit of fast road , so hopefully they will be fine.
