Toyo T1 Sports

[donmar]

got them balanced didnt need tracking or aligning doing

[lebon]

I am getting my alignment check tomorrow with Lexus while they change my wing mirrors and my rear windscreen.

[donmar]

why you having mirrows and screen changed

[lebon]

Both wing mirrors are stained and rear screen is because when you turn the rear demister on it interferes with the radio signal. Strange one that is.

[donmar]

what just the glass in morrows being changed

[lebon]

Not sure really if its the glass or the whole wing mirror.

[donmar]

where abouts you from anyway?

[lebon]

Ashford Kent

Hi Don, What are your initial thoughts on you the new Toyos in comparison to Toyo T1R you had?

Mine the very first thing I noticed were the quietness and some of the tramlining has gone done about 150 miles so far.

[donmar]

not been on long trip yet so cant give you the answers you want mate, on the short trips i have done on them they ride /feel / and sound just like the T1Rs which was smooth and quite but i will let you know once i have driven on them over a week or so

[donmar]

well i still cant tell you much only that they are quite and hold the road well as i dont know what they are like in the wet as we ant had any yet? but i think i can say they are as good as the T!Rs but will let you all know once we have had some rain

[lebon]

_{Do you know how long or how many miles it takes for the tyres to scrub in}

[donmar]

the tyres today dont take long why you ask?

[lebon]

Because the back end seem to feel 'slippery'

[donmar]

i ant had any problem up to yet, but as i said we ant had any rain here yet? but to be truthfull i ant been a fan of having different sizes on the front to the back, maybe thats the problem which motor you got mine is gs300 mk2, once we have had rain i can let you know whats its like on wet roads

[lebon]

Mine is an IS 250

[donmar]

well had them on a while now and on dry and wet roads? not 100% sure what i think of them, they hold road well in all conditions and are quiet but if i was to be honest i think the T1Rs were better, it would be interesting if anyone else as drove on both tyres

[lebon]

As for me this is my first Toyos, its definitely better then the Dunlops I had before.
