Very sticky, I run these on my v8 e30 (225/45/16) and only after being in the cold for half a year have they started to lose their stick! These grip great and look the part, haven't pushed them in the rain, but dry they're very functional, drive great, no noise noticed aside from usual e30. Mine have work quickly, but that's on lowered suspension with camber wear

Really great tires. I'm might have to buy more
Haven't driven much and only on sunny days, but ride quality and quietness are excellent!
Can't believe how amazing these tires grip the road in wet or dry conditions.
Decent tires tread life seams to be good.
Love, love, LOVE; These tires. These are my first set of tires wider than 205. I very happy with how the car corners and accelerates, both in the dry and the wet.
I purchased the Toyo R1R's for my 2001 Mazda Miata that I use for autocross (STR Class), and during the first run with the new tires, I shaved off 3 seconds off my time on that very first run of the new season. A great handling tire I.M.H.O., but for the record, I do not run these tires outside of autocross racing, so as of now, I cannot comment on wet conditions, and certainly not winter conditions. The folks as Simple Tire are really nice and professional, and I know I will go back and gladly do business with confidence and with them again, not only for performance tires, but also for my other "daily drivers", as well. Thanks, Simple Tire!
Ran 2 7.5hour races at Laguna Seca Raceway. Finish 3rd in class on Saturday and 1st in class on Sunday. Still have tread left. Dry weather grip and wear were very good.
Very Soft and Sticky Compound. Sticks very well.
These are great tires for Autocross. This is our second set and we love them!!! We don't use them in the winter so I can't really rate winter traction.
Get technical:
