Anyone have any experience with Toyo T1Rs?

Just found a killer deal on some 345s to replace my Nittos.

my thought on toyo... not much better than nitto...

if you're willing to spend extra, get some real tires like bridgestone re11 or s04/michelin pss.

Bridgestone RE 11 dont carry my size. Come Kenchan, get it together!

Michelin PSS was option but at the price/rate of wear it would be silly on my car since I daily drive.

Which Toyos and Nitto did you have?

t1r and 555's i think they were called. i dont nitto or toyo or falken any more.

for dd, might be better off with DW's. not sure if they carry your size. you can search what they offer.

Lets see how these go. Not many choices for 345s.

Heard nothing but great things from viper and vette owners.

As long as it doesn't pop off on the dyno, right? Haha. These tires didn't do very well up front. When simply turning sharp in the neighborhood (like a U turn), it felt like the tire was going to pop off. There was this wavy lumpy feeling in the steering wheel, too!

But for fat rears, hopefully it works out well for you!

I will never forget that.

I had these and took them to the track, they are very good tires, my only complaint is the steering response, but the ultimate grip is very good, and the best thing they have is the durability, They had almost the same grip when old than when brand new. The noise is relatively low. Comfortable as well. I would rate these not far behind the michelin pilot sport 2 overall for daily drive

Any comments on the tires, W.O.W.? I've been running Invos since replacing the stock RE050s, and I would be interested to hear your thoughts on changing tires. I'm running much closer to stock size (255/285), so I have a few more options, but the life of the tires and the wet weather performance of the Invos (not to mention cost) have made my decision pretty easy so far.
