I've got T1-R's all round at the moment, and although I wasn't too sure to begin with (probably because the place that fitted them put 34PSI in :roll: ), I'm really starting to quite like them now.
It's odd - perhaps it was due to the dodgy pressures initially, but the ride felt a bit "vague" in the dry. However even in colder and damper conditions (including downright WET), they feel really good.
In fact I'd go so far as to say the worse the conditions get, the better the tyres feel - compared to what you might expect.
Striking fear into the hearts of duplicate posts everywhere...! :P

For an excellent handling tire with decent road manners:
Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R
Performs almost as well as the Azeni 615 and doesn't get greasy with heat.

Have you used the Bridgestones? I have been wondering about them for quite some time now. I have two issues with them one, my roads are full of cracks and potholes and all kinds of that rubbish, second, they cost 1,5 times (or more) than gs-d3 Goodyears which aren't exactly cheap.
If you use them I'd like to hear more about them...
