i've seen them on Chris @ toyo's A4 Avant. He auto x's his car and said that they were a great step up from the T1-S. I didn't think they were going to be ready till summer.

Sounds like they will offer the 500 mile/45 day trial period on this tire.

t1r's

I just got a set, i have le28n's 18x8.5's, cusco type I and II l.a.b.'s, cusco rear sway bar, and tanabe springs, my t1r's are 235 40 18 and in comparison to the advans.......in a word.......poop. understeers pretty bad now. I took my friend for a ride, put the car at about 75mph and jerked the wheel suddenly left then right and the car barely moved, just a loud deep tire squeel. I'm not a track racer and not a professional so take it for what it's worth, but I'd personally get a set of azenis 615's if you're looking for more life/better perf. Like I said this was comparing to the advan's.

I have heard from several people that the s-03s and the evo are not a good combination. If the price of the 48s are close to the 46s I'd just get the 46s.

Do you have the toyo trial period offer so you could return them?
