[QUOTE="valkryie, post: 149455, member: 2023"] Recently have the experience to find out the difference in tire grip level between my Toyo T1-R and stock Dunlop Sport SP2000 that comes with the car. This is not a fair comparison since the T1-R is 235/35R19 and SP2000 is 205/55R16 but just for disussion. My rear left was temporarily fitted with SP2000. Took a long sweeping right corner at around 85 km/h. With the weight shifting to the left, I feel my rear left twitching slightly. Last time I remember taking the same corner at 100 km/h without any problem using all four T1-R tires and the T1-R is not on the limit at that speed. Just watch Tokyo Drift and I recognize the tire thread. Think I appreciate my toyos more now. :D Will not fit any falken as I had spun once using Falken Ziex 326 at 70 km/h on a wet road. Don't know what happen but was really surprised. Had to do oversteer correction to save the car. It was scary and I was very lucky to save the car. [/QUOTE]
