Michelin PS2 vs Toyo T1R's
Hey guys, I just picked up a set of 19" techarts and I'm debating on which tires to go with. I know the PS2's are well thought of but I plan to do some distance driving and I know most go thru them fairly quickly. The Toyo's I can pick up locally and run a little more than half the price of the PS2's which are $500 ea.roughly for the rears and $315 for the front ea...the Toyos at $281 ea rears and $184 ea front is such a good deal plus they have a higher wear rating. Looking for opinions especially from those who run the toyo's. I may do an occational track day but may just run stock wheels w/the Pirelli's although maybe I would run the techarts, not sure. Thanks for the input.

You should do a search, I posted similar questions a few weeks back. But, I needed 18's and they were not available in the stock sizes (Toyo) . Very well received though, by a lot of board members.

Keven,
I did do a search but there were lots of opinions (which are fine but...) but only like two people who had actually used the tires on their 996TT. I was looking for additonal feedback from those who own them. What did you end up going with? BTW, I am looking at 19" 235/35/19 and 315/25/19 so I was also wondering if there are any fitment/rubbing issues w/the Toyos. Thanks for your response though....

I like the PS2s because wet traction was good, but also the tires are very quiet even at higher speeds 100+. I can't say I ever heard noise from them.
They wear out quicker than most tires, but they are worth it.

I worked for toyo for a little while, and I'd agree w/ this statement dead on. If money wasn't an issue and I was buying the tires...i'd go PS2. If I was looking for an R-compound tire it'd be different though.
