Toyo R1R's... decent tyre?

Need new tyres all round and want some quality items. I know Kristian rated them pretty highly? Anyone else running them?

are R1R's the semi slicks?

I'm running T1R's (have been for 2.5 years) and theyre really good... only considering the goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric as wheels magazine rated it a tad higher than the toyos

Supposed to be one of the closest things to an R-compound semi slick you can get in a road tyre. There was what you'd call a slight uproar about who should get access to them at what cost in drift comp circles as they were said to pretty much put anyone who wasn't using them at an unfair disadvantage.

Can't help you in any real world feedback but judging by what others have said it sounds like you'd be hard pressed to get a better performing tyre short of a semi slick, in the dry at least.

Well by all reports they are up there. ID also recommend Kumho Ecsta KU36 and Maxxis i-Pro

im having a vision of the 31 with them in black, getting drift teks soon and want to push them out.

    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
    • For me at least the reason why it bothers me is because it's indicative of a deeper problem. And that will nag at me forever. Especially because I have tailpipe emissions testing + evap leak testing every 2 years.
