In what size?

If I check the cheapest price for the BFG's thats 80 euro for each tire in 205-50-15
And the Toyo T1-R costs 68,50 for each tire in 205-50-15

R15 195/50 bfg's are about 190euros for a set, and t1R's about 200-210 euros!offcourse it's a price with some specials discounts,but most of lithuanians are buying for that price and enjoying the grip! :up:by the way,already drove 150km in 888's-amazing feeling of total control when cornering braking or even fast start!! :eyes: :up:

what is the weather like in lithuania ? here in malta the weather is very hot but very humid so at night the roads are slippery with moisture. Therefore I don't want my tyre change to be counterproductive. That is why I am asking whether I should buy r888s or t1rs ! cheers

2 days ago I downloaded a Japanese version of the Best Motoring Series where they tested the new Toyo tire.
Cant remember the type number, and I cannot understand Japanese all that good, so I dont know what the verdict was :eyes:

OK, re-downloaded that videofile and checked whihc Toyo tire it was they discussed.
It was the new Toyo Proxes R1R

Must say that I really like that thread on the tire, also a almost semi-slick if you ask me :smiley:
