curently waiting for re002 year 2012 stock now only have 2011 stock

That's what i felt. everyone has their own preference when it comes to tyres. I feel re002 is more comfortable with great dry grip. but compare to my exp with re001 although it's not as comfortable the performance slightly better. but re002 will always be a good choice than t1r as it;s only loses in wet. Price of re002 slightly more. that;s about it.

tread wear rating aside, japan made tires wear out faster than sout east asia's made.
this is due to the different material to suit the respective weather / road condition.

conclusion : re002 which was designed to suit our road condition / weather is a better choice over the japan made t1r.

I tot R888 is road legal semi slicks

+wet handling
Watch you tube
Quite good leh

bro when u talking about specs difference u cant compare t1r with re002 different category. although certain size made in indonesia but bear in mind quality control is provided. t1r i have tried noisy tyre after 30% use. good in dry but wet is bad. for re002 although the price is much higher but u pay the quality cost and i can confirm you, you will like it.

thank for all reply

If re002 and ps3 is the best in this category, I will definitely get the re002 on my next tyre change. I'm currently using ps3...sidewall soft...

I thought Michelin PS2 is already phased out and replaced with Michelin PSS?

Using re002 and have no regrets during dry. Just stick like no one else business... now also thinkng of changing t1r...

i am also running both tyre now
re002 good grip
t1r this 1 need some good warm up before it can fully grip

Toyo already has a newer product which is the T1S (Sport). Maybe that one is even better.
Anohter good option maybe is the Yokohama Advan Sport.
If want cheaper options maybe can go with GT Champiro HPY. I read in the ZTH forum there's already a review for it and seems very good value for the money.
