Tires - I almost forgot! The Toyo tires were fine. Like any street tire, they got a bit greasy near the end of a 20 minute track session. Otherwise, no issues.
If you want the best of both worlds, get Toyo T1R's. They are an all around amazing tire. They stretch great and perform well in wet and dry conditions. My car has never felt more \"sure footed\" than when i had 195-45 T1R's on my 15x8's.
I'm also getting new summer rubber, Nitto Neogens in 205/45 R16.
NITTO NEOGEN .I just got a set .They did great in the snow are Z rated and 280 tread rating.
The Nexens don't stretch worth a damn, the federals aren't much better. If you want the stretch and need it to work the Toyo T1-R is your best bet.
I absolutely love my T1R's they stretch very well. here they are on a 9.5 and an 8.5"
I love my T1-R's. a 195 on a 7", the sidewall is completely flat and right in line with the edge of the wheel. they stretch very well on an 8"
Toyo T1R's on 8.5" rims. They stretched awesome. Ride nice and stiff as to be expected. So far they've been great.
I'll give you my experience fwiw... I've run toyo t1r 245/40/18 and falken rt615 225/40/18. First, let me say that if you're going to 245 you need to run 35 series tires, otherwise your OD goes up. Also, stickyness wise it's a better comparison. For me, there is no comparison to the above two tires on the track, the Falkens are far superior. For the street, I'm not too sure. I imagine the Toyo's would last longer.
t1-r's suck.
