Bridgestone Adrenalin Potenza RE001
Toyo T1R - arnd $160 ea.
Toyo Proxes4 (current, n dun wanna use tis no more) - arnd $130 ea.
Toyo T1S (not sure if tis have tat size, not much info on tis) - n/a
Toyo R1R (not sure if tis come out alrdy or not) - n/a
Goodyear eagle F1 - arnd $150
Yokohama Advan S.drive AS01 - n/a

i changed to RE-001 at around April...cost me around $140per tire fitted (195/55/R15). The best tire i used so far.

T1R's are by far the best choice.

doesn't really explain in the tyre thread...

what makes the T1R better than the proxes4s and the additional $30 justifiable?

I have driven on these tyres in the wet and the dry, driven with them on the track and just think they are all around a superior tyre.

i found F1's to be quite good for an 'all-rounder', but the compound was too soft so i would wear them out really quickly- which becomes an expensive task!
