Copied over from the other thread, hadn't seen this one.
Just had my Toyo T1Rs refitted to the civic after approximately 1500 miles & two track days with the AD08Rs fitted.
Thought i'd post up how i've found both, hopefully will be of some use to someone in the future.
T1Rs - Good mid price range road tyre, plenty of grip on road but abit out of its depth on track. Really good wet weather grip & softer side walls make them much more compliant on road. In fact, the drive home from the tyre fitters felt like i had had softer springs fitted when compared to the drive there an hour earlier with the AD08Rs fitted.
AD08Rs - Good on road with loads of grip although much stiffer sidewall makes the ride harsher & the car feel a little skittish. You get used to it though & the extra grip more than makes up for it. They surprised me by being fine in heavy rain, it was torrential on my way to Donington last week & i had no issues in standing water at motorway speeds. Excellent on track, i completed track days at two tracks with these fitted, both which i had already completed earlier in the year with the Toyos fitted. The difference in grip throughout & traction out of corners was massive, i'll definately be fitting them to my next car, in fact i've only removed them because i'll be changing cars in the new year & these will be wasted over winter on the road.
Only negative really is the price, they cost approximately £150 each & fitting
