I LOVE my T1R's. On my second set of them, worth every penny.

I used proxes 4 when my 8 was a DD and they were great in rain and dry traction, but they even got me through snow. They did me well!

The Proxes 4 are the replacements for the FZ4's right? I ran those forever and they are great in the rain.

I've run the T1R's but I think Bang for buck street radial that's trackable = Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec ftw.

T1R's are nice and predictable but I miss the crazy HOWL of the T1s when they approach the limit. Very progressive tire. T1R's last longer though and are more square.
