Tire opinions - Toyo or Vredestein?

[00stang37]

Anyone have experience with the Toyo T1 Sport or Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta?

I'm currently running the Toyo t1R's and am really happy with them. Unfortunately, they discontinued them and replaced them with the new T1 Sport.

I stopped in a local town fair tire to check the T1 Sport and ended up having the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's pushed as an all around better tire at for around $175 if i remember correctly.

Anyone have any personal experience with these two tires?

They are going to be used for a nice weather daily driver in the summer/fall but I'm sure they will see some light rain on occasion. Car will have fun in the corners but nothing to really push the limits and no real track time.

I've ran the vreds for a few years now. They're really good tires. For what you intend to use them for, they will be great. And they're the best tire I've ever ran in the rain too. They are big competition against michelin and pirelli over seas. Here, nobody really knows about them or sells them. Only a select few vendors.
