Ive used Toyo T1R's now for years on all the cars i have owned easy to get hold of all the time. Lovely tread pattern and i run them on my sti type r which has around 350bhp with no issues and had them on my escort cosworth which was running 420bhp great tyres imho. Get em you wont regret it!

i had bridgestones on my last sti and have toyo t1rs on the new car. the bridgestones were better but wore quicker and more expensive. The toyos seem a harder compound and less grippy but were cheaper.

toyos are a little softer than the eagle f1 have had both and at the limit of grip the toyos drift much more predictably the f1 nearly broke my neck as they re-grip rather suddenly defo the toyos found nearly new with wheels on ebay recently (£320) or camskill twice b4 that

Not sure what you drive, but recently told that if a new age they are too soft due to the weight of a modern car. Check out my thread in the Tyres section, I've just opted for Vrendsteins, they they are a bargain and excellent reviews on the net.

If this post was meant for me I disagree! as the RE070's where designed for the Hawkeye STI, I have had 20000 miles form mine with a fast road geometry setting and still going strong. Also never had a problem with them in bad conditions either, and they look very cool with the semi slick appearance £125.00 fully fitted
