Yep, got some T1-Ss for $60/tire!!

 

have you ran them before ??? I'm plannning for RA-1's as my next tire.

 

I haven't run the T1-Ss before, but all the reviews say they're a fantastic tire...just expensive. I got around the expensive part by finding a size that was on sale for roughly half price!!

Several of the Seattle gang are running the RA-1s as their track tires at the moment and they seem to be quite happy with them.

Once my Kumho's wear out I'm planning to get RA-1's for my track wheels...

 

They're running them shaved for the track. For the street you can probably run them at full tread...

 

very cool brant, can't wait to hear your impressions...

Well, I should have the tires next week sometime and probably the wheels a week or so after that. Once I have the tires mounted I'll put 'em on the car and start railing around town. I'll write up my impressions.

I hear the grip is high on the tires, but they have a relatively soft sidewall. I'll be intrigued to see how that combination manifests itself...

 

I hope they are better than my current Kumho ECSTA's, because I almost spun Guinness getting on the freeway today.

Sure got the attention of the guy behind me!

 

Not that the Kumho's are bad...but I'm just hoping for a little more. I think I got spoiled by driving shaved R compounds all summer...

 

from what the track junkies say, the RA-1's are better for sure, I don't know about the.... t-1s's
