I had a very early set of Toyo T1-S's and they were spot on, excellent grip in the dry and wet and the shoulders were fine, I think the problme must have been with later tyres.

IIRC the first T1-S's came standard on the Evo 6!?
AFAIK Evos came with Yoko A046s or A048s. My VIII had Yoko A046s
Oh right, I wasn't sure but I seem to remember a posted being on the all in my local tyre/wheel shop Prob just used a picture of a White Evo 6!
