peter richards Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 had them on mine when i changed the alloys i think they were not to bad noise wise but didnt last very long grip was ok but they are a bit soft , size were 18s . but i think they are a good tyre , the falkens i fitted after them were not as good , and id say louder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I've been running T1Rs on my N/A daily driver for years and no issues at all, decent grip on all weathers considering and I'm managing about 12-15,000 out of a set. Can't say I've particularly noticed much noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastcar Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I've had T1R's on my supra for about 3 years now. Can't really say that there is anymore road noise than any other tyre. The grip is really good too you won't regret putting a set on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorglub Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 The broadside of the T1R is really too soft, with them i have lost a lot of control and steering accuracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I've been using T1R's for a year and half now and they are great! No problems with road noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Yep - it's an N/A (before everyone else get's there) Aye, daily driver, 300-odd miles a week, mostly motorway, but not driven too gently on the A roads and a set'll pretty much last me 10-12 months.

Jarno Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Very good tires compared to price, I had these in my former 600hp FWD car and with T1R's torque steering wasn't too bad and grip was good. Compared to china tires there wasn't any noise lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra steveo Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I used to run T1Rs until just recently I am about to switch to falken 452, it seems fairly hard to track down the tyres at a decent price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
