Toyo T1R's

[Anonymous]

In people's experience, do they have a soft or hard sidewall? I have them all round on my car and think they have a quite a soft sidewall. The car feels like it has a small amount of roll but it's running KW coilovers which I would have thought would elimate that sort of thing, so i'm guessing it's the tyres, no?

Tyres require running in for about 500 miles.

How many miles have you covered.

T1R's as far as I remember have a harder shoulder than the original Toyo Proxy for improved cornering and wear.

Sidewall stiffness would probably be more to do with tyre pressures and profile though wouldn't it ?

Unless you're running very low pressure and wildly off spec tyre profiles the roll is unlikely to becoming from the tyres.

KWs will not eliminate body roll - they resist it more than OEM through being stiffer and offer better grip through vastly improved dampers.

Roll elimination/management is the remit of ARBS (front and/or rear) but you will actually reduce grip if you start installing dirty great big ones.

Tyres have been on for many miles, they're not new at all.

They're ph1 fronts, tho so a wopping 50 profile which won't help. Pressure we're checked recently but even at that, the recommended pressures are very low.

I was gonna say, at 20psi you're gonna get some flex hehe

Tyres must be beyond sell by date now then ?
