TOYO makes a GREAT tire! I used to sell Toyo's back in 1990 & 1991 when they were first coming on the scene. We even carried Toyo 800 for regular passenger cars....

I have personally mounted Toyo's on IROC-Z's, Formula 350's & ZR-1 Corvette's over the years between 1989 -1998. I can tell you this much; the guys driving these cars were shocked at how well the Toyo handled over the Goodyear VR & ZR Gatorbacks. They liked the wet traction of the Toyo as well...The Goodyear Eagle GS-C was a great tire. I think the F1 (after my time) was good too...But Toyo's are excellent even today. Toyo made a name for themselves in the 1990's that continues today and deservedly so....

I also worked for Goodyear & others back in the day as well....Goodyear is a Good Product! I even sold tires when working at a New car dealership before it became popular to do so...and I was the adjustment guy to look at warranty claims BEFORE a tire got shipped to the manufactured for a possible warranty claim....

The SSG&H Bottom Line---If you can get Toyo's or Dunlops at a great price---GO FOR IT!! :thumbsup:
