Very good tire. Good grip in the wet also, which can be a problem with cheap tires. Will buy T1-R again.

Comment:
If I'm honest, I wasn't impressed with these. They gripped ok in the dry and I didnt think they were too bad in the wet, but then they gave way on a mild corner on a slightly damp road at 40mph and ended up spinning a couple of times. I got about 11500 miles out of mine (inc after the crash) and actually complained to mytyres that I'd had to replace them so soon. I've since had Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's on the same car and they were a million times better in all conditions than the Toyos (I've taken the same bend at over 50 on the GSD3s and they didnt budge a milimeter). I very much doubt that I'd ever buy Toyo Proxes again.
