Which Toyos?

I've had two sets of Yokohamas, but will definitely be trying something else next as they feel too ineffective to me. No way of knowing without trying something else.

i think i had T1s and they're T1r now. a mate has had both and found no real difference. one replaced the other, either "r" replaced "s" or the other way round. he's not had yokos though!

cheers anyway.

anyone else?

i run Yoko A539's on my fez and i love them personally.

I'm running 195/45/15 yoko's but to be honest ive never used any other make of tyre on my fez as i've been happy with them so always replace them with the same.

I've heard good things about Toyo tyres too so you just have to decide whether you wanna just try them or not.

Also where are you getting your tyres from as i found an awesome website which is http://www.blackcircles.com ,they are a mail order company but you can pay a little bit more and have the tyres fitted by a mobile fitter too .

Second that, A539's are absolute rubbish, get what you pay for though. Dont think you can get them anymore but Yoko A520's are very good in wet and dry.
I'm running Toyo TS-s' now and think they work well.
Parana's are ment to be good also.
