Default Recommend me some rear tyres for my saff

Hi folks I really wanted to get some toyo t1rs for the rear of my saff but can't find them anywhere in 225,35r18

Anyone got the t1s cos I do like the feel of the toyo tyres very grippy and quite soft ,

Been told by my mate to go Michelin as he works for a private tyre company but wouldn't buy without people opinions

Why 225? Not 215?
