Hey everyone, I had the unfortunate experience of having a rock spear my RR tire and have to get a pair of new ones to replace. After seeing some of the posts regarding T-1S ( I also considered the Eagle F1 GSD3, but I have heard more about the T-1s at this point ), I thought i might give them a try.

Anyone know where I could find a shop that will treat me right? I would prefer the peninsula as I work in San Bruno and would like to take care of it sometime during the day this week.

Thanks for any help!

Edit: I just found out that the T1-S has been replaced by the T1-R. Anyone have any experience with this tire?

t1-r's are suppose to be better, but i don't have them.

 

i think you can order online with tires.com and pick up at their local shop??

 

did you mean tirerack.com? If so, I love that place. And yes, you can pick up locally. I prefer shipped to work and installed elsewhere.

 

I just got a set of T-1Rs to replace my T-1Ss. I like the T-1Rs MUCH better!

 

Thanks everyone, I was able to secure a pair of the new T1-Rs. I will post a review as soon as I get a chance to warm 'em up : )

Special thanks to MGL...

 

^ yah i heard those are real sticky.

Let me know how much you paid and where. I will need front replacements for my front T1-S's pretty soon.

Thanks

I would like to know too, Michelle

 

Hey, do you get better prices from them than tirerack?

I don't think they sell Toyo tires. Neither does TireRack.com for that matter. You might need to check your information.

Don't worry... We still luv you Bubble.

 

Here is a link for the best price I could find on Toyo Tires so far. I hope it helps some.

If you guys can find better please let me know. I'm still trying to decide between the Nitto 555 and Toyo T1-R's.

 

nitto 555s suck in the rain. i don't have them on the z, but on another car and almost crashed in the rain.

 

Cool info... Thanks! It's good to hear real feedback like this, saves me the problem of having to find it out meself.

 

ONLINETIRES.COM works for me....

 

hey mgl, can I get the info too? Time for some 285's in the rear.

I've have 4k mi on the T1R's and I can't ask for a better tire on a budget. My only complaint is traction when the tires are cold but I'm sure I can live with that. When they get warm/hot, the grip is excellent, I can take sharp turns with confidence. Enjoy!
