Hey, does anyone know how grippy Toyo T1R tires are, and if there better than the stock Nismo tires, and also how long they last?

I liked my T1R's they were great and not too expensive. They lasted me around 20K miles. But I drive aggressive.

My first set of aftermarket tires were Nittos 555 and I rate them a 7 out of 10. I thought tread life was crap. Went to Continentals after that cause I was broke and would maybe give them a 6. Went to Toyo's TR1 after that and would have to give them a 10 as I havent had anything better to rate them off. Wednesday I get my 18's with Toyo R888 and Im sure Ill love them. I would defiantely get the TR1's again.

You cant roll the front fenders. I run a 265/30/19 on a +12 with a 3mm spacer.

perhaps you can get the seibon fenders that stick out 10mm farther. but i wouldn't because i doubt that piece can take a hit like the stock fenders.

Can't "roll" the front fenders but you can definitely pull it up and out a few millimeters using a heat gun and a baseball bat.

My front fenders are flared, but that's from the wheel hitting on it so much.
I suggest getting them pulled a tiny bit before putting on super aggressive wheels in the front so your fenders don't turn out like mine, the paint chipped in both side.
