T1S still made but ONLY in certain sizes.
I had the T1R's on, these have a reinforced shoulder to counter the critcism of the "S" with premature shoulder wear problems.
I thought the "S" was better, and the shoulder on the newer "R" version seems to be wearing faster.
I did 14,000 miles on the "S" versions(all four wheels), and 6,000 before the "R"'s were totally worn down with no shoulder visible by this mileage.
I swapped for GOODYEAR EAGLE F1 GSD3, in 195/50X15(astra mk3), what a complete pile of dog shite these are, tried them once before, sorry I did not learn my lesson the first time, the only thing they are better at is a bit more comfy.
Prior to the toyo's I had UNIROYAL RAINSPORT 1's, way way way better than the F1 dry or wet.
Bring back YOKOHAMA A008 I say!!
