Tyres are so personal. I can't get on with pe2's, they go off far too easily for me. Yet I really liked f1's, probably the best I've used. Pirelli's were good, but a false economy, as they lasted less (almost as bad as t1r's in that respect). On 195's you'll get less overall grip, but the car...
One slight difference. They are poweful rear wheel drive cars. All you'll acheive by having wider tyres on the back is understeer. There's actually an article on why they don't have wider tyres on the front in the back of evo this month/
This is the guy that put up the review you posted:o
I am not the kind of driver to deliver a proper judgement on how sporty a tire is (at least not with a Lexus LS dinosaur). If I say the V12evo is not responsive, it might as well be the car.
But you're comparing apples and pears. One's a track tyre, and will last as such. One's a road tyre. Plus the fact that you can actually buy one of the options for a sensible price helps in my book ;).
If I was getting track tyre's, I'd get the RS2's.
