Who has used these and do you rate them?

cheers

 

ive had them on the front of my escort for the last 1200miles & they have worn down something silly already, i wont buy them again, shite in the rain aswell i thaught

 

i'd get the t1r's if you could mate - I have had both and the r is a much better tyre IMO (even though most say the opposite) but i'm only goin off my own personal experiance so what do I know?

 

Great tyres but they are soft... They grip like a mofo tho.

 

Toyo T1-S havnt been made for atleast 12months from what i gather. What ever you have been offered will most likley be old stock. I would go for T1-R's or the new R1-R instead.

 

Your not wrong there, Bloody good, but don`t last 5 mins...

 

I always used the T1-S's but as said, there are no longer made....

Dont like the T1-R's at all sadly

 

ive got the t1-s's on my frp and the ka and there very vey grippy!

 

try the new toyo proxes 4's they are superb in the wet, great in the dry. not off par with the F1's.

 

wouldn't touch T1R's or S', have driven on both and dont like them, seem good in the dry for a bit, but as said, they are very soft and wear down very quickly, and there abillity in the wet is, erm, interesting, to say the least. I rate Kumho ecsta KU31's much higher, and they are cheaper.

 

They were part of a wheel tyre package, I have just bought the wheels on there own now and will be buying the new Eagle F1's asymetric's

cheers

 

softer than continentals, but still good tyres

 

i had them on my escossie.shit hot in the dry.......but just shit in the wet

 

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!!
