Not the toyos

im going to.burn mine there shocking

[Hawwy]

Rainexperts are good too

[mattyD]

Fuck uniroyals, not sure if they were rainsport 2's but once had them on my megane and to cut a long story short, they lost complete grip on a damp road with me going under the speed limit round a 1 degree corner! Not exactly a great advert when they failed to carry out what they are designed for!!

Toyo t1r FTW, grip is awesome I find

[steve-gers]

rainsports are very good in the wet

i cant get grip below 100 in the wet and darent go near a corner with toyos

[StarletMad]

Rainsport in the summer.....?? how do they perform?

[ryan lang]

really well

[WallaceGlanza]

I do love my parada's in the dry but in the wet they're useless. Even on the standard turbo I can wheel spin all the way through the first 3 gears and most of 4th, they certainly wouldn't cope with a decent amount of power...

Ive just fitted a full set of rainsport 2s, theyre fecking awesome! Grip is great in the wet and dry. Werent that expensive either

Uniroyals where shit on my megane, that's good enough for me to never buy them again

rainsports!

[Ryan-11]

I prefer the toyos over the pradas, not tried the uniroyals yet, i found the pradas better in the dry than the toyos but not by much, pradas were shit in the wet and the toyos werent too bad, the toyos have lasted way longer than the pradas

[StarletMad]

Think il try the Uniroyal's found 4 for £161 Delivered.

Anyone know of any cheaper??

Thanks

[steve-gers]

That's as cheap as I found mine mate. Really really good tyres

[Broony]

personal preference but i prefer T1R's

[jakeep82]

proxes over rainsports never used paradas!!

[AdamB]

Tyre pressures are more important than the compound of the tyre. I ran rainsports on the rear of myy GT at 30psi and they were shit. The rear felt so loose and slide happy it didnt put much confidence in me whilst cornering, I would say you would need to run them at 28psi or lower to get the best grip.

[scottyb]

T1Rs will also be harder to get now as toyo have stopped making them, although i think camskill still have them

[daniel_g]

What is the replacement for the t1r called and anybody running them yet ?

[DavidAshton]

I run Toyo T1R 's on the winter wheels and PS2's on the summers.

Both are more than capable if you drive to the road condition.

Neither let the back loose when pushing it in the dry and you can always put enough power down if you control the throttle properly. I think the PS2's look aesthetically more pleasing, they look quite aggressive with the big cuts and everyone always asks why I have racing tyres on my car.

To be honest all 3 will be fine if you drive them properly, people will always have different experiences I'd say give them all a try at some point see what suits your driving and feel for the car.

Also T1R's were dirt cheap from Camskill, they may still be!

Rainsport 2 FTW
