Mounted the Toyo T1-R's
They are really nice.
For you T1-S fans here is the verdict.
Cheaper, softer, grippier, better curb guard, quieter, deeper tread, better looking sidewall with neato R graphic.
My sizes are 235/35 19 265/30 19
Dudes also check the Vader13 ghetto mod..^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I sprayed my front grills with black gloss spray paint.
They look new and shiny again...

whoops posted this in the w203 section too. What I did was post in the wrong section (w203 non amg)
Then I popped opened this forum and did not see it. So I posted here again.
I need to get my *** off the comp.

A friend of mine has Toyo's on his S4 and loves them. I was more or less hesitant to buy Goodyears but after living with them on my R32 (sold) I really think they are a great tire for the price. certainly great if you live in an area of frequent rain.

Hopefully, the T1-R is better. I'm not a Toyo hater; I use RA-1's on my WRX and like them.
I have the Michelin PS-2 on my new Boxster S and they seem great. I wanted them on the C32 but they were backordered in 255/40-17 at the time I was buying. However, for the price I think I'll buy the Goodyears again for the C32.
