FalkenZE-912 or Toyo T1R, which tire

[cvw74 0]

gotta choose a tire, out of these 2, T1R or ZE 912, which will be best option, 215 40 16 going 9j and 195 45 16 going on 8j

 

looking for all round performance and stretch characteristics

 

thank you

I have run TOYO T1R's on a load of cars and they are an excellent tyre (I have 215/40 zr16 on a set of 7.5 rims on my corrado at the moment.

My A4 and my wifes A4 both were bought s/hand with Falken tyres on hers were Ze 912 and were 235/45 zr17 , they were cr*p, poor grip and very high wear rate , try down to 1.6mm after 7000 miles on the rear of a front wheel drive.

The 205/55 vr16 on my A4 are poor in the wet and dry and only look like they will last for 6500 miles.

So the Falkens make the Toyo look hard-wearing! :shock:

toyo's wear quickly, falkens are shite.

 

dunlop p9000's are superb when stretched.
