Isn't 225/30 for the front a little narrow and thin? Also the rear is very thin. Is your speedo still accurate?

Toyo is absolutely bang for buck. Toyo R1R good for daily drive. Toyo R888 for daily and occasional track sessions. Really long lasting, no complains! PM me if you need lobang for Toyo

Especially since it stated made in Japan , I felt its value for money
How does Toyo T1 rates?

Personal experience with Toyo
T1R - it does work superb within 25k mileage(12months), good handling and traction but it tends to drop performance after 25k mileage, noise also appear afterwards.

C1S - so-so performance especially it was comfort tyre and road noise level obviously lower than T1R. I only manage to clocked 13k mileage before sold my ex ride.

Both are selling at wallet friendly price, depends on your budget and expectation. For me i will change tyre @ 30k (45-50%thread) mileage(14months) and swap to my dad's car in malaysia as normal commuting usage, so he dont have to spend money to change tyre.'

No experience with T1 unfortunately, can't comment much! But Toyo as a whole, safe choice!

Not bad at first but the Toyotas deteriorate very fast.
