Personally I don't like T1-Rs, in particular in the wet.

Falken 452s, whilst not probably my first choice if I was going to do track days etc. I had on my old 200bhp/300lbft Mk4 Golf and I found them great. Certainly for road use, spirited driving etc. I never had a problem, they wore well and i'd have happily replaced them when they wore out. As it was, I sold the car before that happened
