Toyo

I use Toyo T1R 205/50R15V on Vesa's all round and I just love them.Excellent sound (so : not much...) , very good grip in dry, very good cornering, especially with Intrax -4 cm and koni yellow.

On an other 480 forum I wrote that in wet I am not so pleased, but hey, I have almost 165 hp's at the wheels, in wet they are also good.

But I have 2.4 bar on the front in stead of Volvo reccamendation 2.1 AND 2.2 bar on the rear where Volvo says 1.9

But, have them now for 4 months and I see the indicator is coming closer to the road....
the rear is almost as new.
