Vredestein Sportrac 3, way better than F1, as are toyo's better than F1.
I've never bought a tyre on price, just on performance, and have used all these, another contender is the Uniroyal rainsport 2.
Toyo's are not that soft, they just don't wear well, well the T1R don't anyway, last set got me 6,000 miles, T1S got me 16,000 miles, same car, same everything.
If I were buying again it would be Vredestein, Uniroyal, T1S if I could get them(discontinued) otherwise I wouldn't bother with Toyo if it had to be "R".
