Mounted the Toyo T1-R's

I gotta say I found a fav new tire.
For those of you T1-S fans.
This tire is less noisy, softer, deeper tread, better curb guard grips way better and a little cheaper than the T1-S.
They happen to look great too and don't streach at all with these sizes.
I am running. 265/30 19 and 235/35 19

Frank, you I am a Team Toyo guy (freebies)..I dunno..but when I sold those extra ones they sent I looked it up and noticed they were a bit cheaper. I forgot allready. You're the new tuning guy with the wheel shop..c'mon you gotta know these things.

and Ricky.
The first thing I did was do a massive drift right out of the tire shop on Beach BLVD in OC.. Thats when I started to smile.

That makes me happy.
My current tires are bald, and since I rotated them just recently I maybe have a hundred or so miles left on them. That means I'll be shopping for some new 22" tires (hopefully) and seeing that you like Toyo's, they'll be a good option.

I love my T1-s, for some reason it has higher load rating compare to other brand with the same size, anyone know why?? Might get T1-R after i wore out current tyres.

I love the TR1 !

TOYOS rock and they are less then the NITTO'S !! which I also like alot and by the the way TOYO and NITTO are the same manufacturer. The TOYO TR1 is a brand new very aggressive tread design and has a more rounded track better suited for bigger meats on dropped rides for less rubbing issuses,It is a *** great tire ! Best by far for the $

I have raved about this tire in other posts.... search> toyo tr1

I thought I might mention this too..on the left you can se my black c230k ss.
I wrapped some Falken AZEN1S ST 115's on the 17's.
They are really nice too, I actually like them better than the PS2's.
Thats for daily put put driving BTW..It really cut down on the road noise.
GO TEAM FALKEN (vader hides head and prays no toyo person reads this)..lol
