Default Toyo T1R just installed, any reviews?

I just got a new set of Toyo T1Rs because I got my tire slashed here at school. I was just wondering on everyones experiences with them. I did some research about them a couple of months ago and I thought that they were pretty good but I just want to know what you think from personal experience

I've only had mine for a couple months now but very happy to this point. They are quiet, improved the ride, and stick like glue. I haven't given them a workout in the rain so can't vouch for that.

My new wheels are in and will be wrapped with the T1R tomorrow.
Nice to know they stick well.

I've had them since June. The car has not slipped one time since and I drive with the TCS off!

i LOVE mine. been to the strip twice with them and they hook descent. can stomp on it in the rain and they still hook. and i have somewhere around 480 hp at the crank. the tread is also so deep they stay looking new forever.

Have 265x40x17 on front of my Coupe and love them. Getting ready to put the 295x35x18 on the back when my new wheels get here next week.

Had mine for a year now. One of the best kept secrets out there. I laugh when I hear guys bragging how much their Goodyears or Michelins cost.
