my experience with Toyo T1-R (compared to PS2)

i just replaced my 235/315 19" Michellin PS2's with same size Toyo T1-R

the price of the PS2 is DOUBLE that of the Toyo

After speaking to a few people, the toyo seemed to make sense..

i put the tires on a few days ago, broke them in

and all i can tell you is i am EXTREMELY happy
the toyo's seem to grip just as well as the michellins... they are quiter, but have a stiffer side wall(which is what i wanted, considering im on 19's, and daily drive my car, and i have a few bumpy roads here and there)
i did notice, the toyo's LOOK slightly narrower compared to the michellins... i dont know if its the fact that the michelins have a bigger "rim protector"



i wish tire rack sold them so i could have purchased them through Damon though ...

oh yea
the coolest thing about these tires is that you can rotate them side to side...
thats a HUGE benefit for us guys with coilovers, running aggressive camber
you cant do that with the PS2's

I ran them on my previous car and thought they were ok....not great, not bad for the price.

Only way to rotate side to side is to dismount them from the wheels and flip them around.....
