Swap them over, plenty of life left.

I wouldn't get rainsports again

Good for road use - but disintegrate on track

I'd never use them on the track, more of a winter choice.

If you want a tyre that gives at least 95% of the performance ( dry and wet ) of the very best tyres, try a set of Kuhmo Ecsta KH31s, I run them on my road rally car, and they are terrific for the money ( about 50 quid a corner ), for the money their isn't anything better, and having tried T1Rs and nankangs ( very briefly ) the Kuhmos are much much better, sure their are marginally better tyres out there, but tend to be twice the price

Nowt wrong with T1R's in the dry, wet or snow.

Just dont drive like a twunt.

They're epic in the rain tbh.

I've said it before and I'm saying it again.

Yep, really got to watch yourself in the wet in a cup. Mine will easily break traction in 3rd gear in the rain. Toyo T1R as well with 7000 miles on them. Just had the MOT and they weren't flagged but probably need doing in the next 2000.

I like Toyo T1Rs and would get them again had I not just got Kumho KH31s on the back. (Awaits Kumho bashing. I wanted Falkens, called ahead to check they had them, car was already up on jacks and they ran out so I went with them, £130 for both fitted.)

Edit: Just seen the Kumho getting praise above, result.

I've heard the R1R's are actually pretty good in the wet

 

[mr.valver]

Sticking to my guns here still, best road tyres by far! ha.
