New tyre recently released I think to replace the T1R. Anybody has had a chance to try them out yet? Thread style reminds me of the RE003.

Looks like entry level performance category, available for smaller sizes. Hopefully not overpriced like those other T1R/T1 Sport.

I live in Sabah where all tyres are more expensive anyways and it seems more expensive than the T1R here.

I just saw this on mudah.
Seem like no news at all about it.

Anyone got anything about it?

honestly,way too new to comment,i do like the looks of the thread pattern,aggressive with big shoulder blocks,wonder it is made in japan,their T1R line up received very poor customer feedback though,but thats very old model tire
i looking into their comfort line CF2,rather old model as well but seems to score very good end user review

Even their latest T1 Sport has not been doing well in many comparison tests.

Heard from random tyre salesman from restaurant this tyre will launch on next Monday. Not sure whether the source reliable or not

they have my size 195/50R16 , gonna try later

The tread pattern looks like a merge between their T1R and T1S.

Looks like its officially launched... but prices indicated from Pauline article

"The tyre is available in Malaysia in 24 sizes ranging from 15 to 19 inches in diameter, with recommended retail prices listed at between RM199 to RM800 per tyre."

It is almost time to change my tires but I really wonder about this tyre. It just felt like it will be loud when it is worn out. Im currently on Fleva and the noise even when worn out is surprisingly good, even outperformed my previous set of PS3.

Just launched.

Is it cat under UHP?

Pricing can fight re003.

Cat under uhp
A lot of sizes

TR1 vs Bridgestone RE003 ? which better in grip for cornering ?

inb4 if got money take PS4 xD

I used set of 003 before.

Dry grip superb.wet grip so so. In fact wobble at 70 to 80.

TR1 still new la. Why not you try and tell us haga

my re003 still 70% grip left .. still long to go ahaha

currently using ps3. After using this I will drop it to Dunlop J5 or D05. To save money portion to new ride haha.

Sadly Toyo didn't mention or stated about noise & comfort level.. only talk about performance on dry & wet condition..

Why not V12E2?

Oh yea. Thanks for reminding me.

But now my ps3 just 10k. Long way. Maybe hankook will upgrade their current line up after 3 years.

Macam good wor

Just install last Saturday. FOC T-shirt. Will review after 10k KM.

Wow, how much per piece? what's ur tyre size?

I was about to change my tyre sooner on my vios, wish to try out this one. Hopefully hear from you soon!

It's size 195/55/15, fits nicely on my Persona fenders, replacing my factory tires after a year using it. Cost me RM800 per set includes balancing, alignments & tyre valve. Got FOC items as mention before. The tyre shop located at Sect. 1 Wangsa Maju. Authorized TOYO shop. The shop name Len Sheng Tyre. Aslo have branch at Bandar Puteri Puchong.

Thanks for the info mate. Have you tried on wet surface so far? And also, how do u feel about the comfort level? Is the noise level lower than before?

Thanks

Can show the pic of the thread? Havent seen it on rim haha

This shop change tyre speed like F1. Took them less than 10 mins to have all my 5 tyres replaced done with balancing.

Ha..Ha...ha... So funny man, ok lah here. Sorry really clear on thread, try to zoom in.

Not yet so far, will give review to you later. I just change my stock tyre, unnoticable about sound level. Its a asymmetric tire, comfort abit reduce if you know about this type. I'm looking for gripping type, comfort will be 2nd. Already used Parada Spec 2, RE003 before , so had to admit the roughness feel.

Mmg fast bro, they very efficient. Staff & owner quite friendly & answer all my question clearly.

Change set of 4 size 195/55/15 last Sunday, at Happy Auto Services Kajang.

anyone notice that the rotation pattern different? I mean one side the groove pointing up and one side pointing down, is this what asymmetric means?

This post has been edited by demons88: May 1 2019, 10:22 PM

i thought Assymetric tires are supposed to be directional. if follow the review vid by Mr. Kon. Didnt he say the V-groove is inside, while the flat rectangles on the outside of the car. Maybe you should look out for indicators like "inside/outside" or some kind of design pattern that looks like an arrow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVTuMmgpqGs try 1:36 min there.

what are the threadwear rating?

i looked at both side, it is where it suppose to be, i will take a photo to show better what i mean tonight.

see how the V Pointing different direction ?



This post has been edited by demons88: May 2 2019, 02:20 PM

if i look back at the vid at 0:17... yes, tires looks like your photo. the Left side really V pointing up. i cant imagine how to disperse water like that.

EDIT: Sorry my mistake, just learn that asymmetrical tires are not directional, as long as they are fit properly. The V parts inside and the flat rectangular one outside.

This post has been edited by Jessieccy: May 2 2019, 03:35 PM

The half V design seems to keep water within the groove instead of dispersing it out to the vertical straight water channels like on the outer half of the tyre.

Yeah the pattern honestly looks questionable especially for wet driving. Wonder how it will behave in heavy wet/water puddles, will it pull more heavily to one side during aquaplaning? Anyway we're not tire engineers, hopefully Toyo should have done proper r&d on this but I'm always a bit skeptical on Toyo in general too.

anyone know which is better? yokohama v701 or this?

This tyre comes in 185/55R15?

Claimed 16% better wet handling and braking performance compared with its predecessor, the Proxes T1R.

How's T1R wet performance? Anyone used before?

Yup, aslo have that size. Almost bought it, but change to 195/55/15 for better contact on road.

i see i see.

i might purposely run through water puddles hahaha

May I know the treadwear, traction and temperature of this tr1?
If can snap a pic. Thanks.
😬😬

Any reviews from tr1 tyre users?

So far I've read good reviews about it. Most users say this is better than the potenza re003.

Sorry late reply, becoz I cannot get the answer for that. Some in FB said treadwear is 280, traction A & temp don't know yet. But since I using couple of weeks till now, dry grip is amazing. Not try wet condition yet becoz no rain.

According to Toyo Europe site but not sure does it applicable in Malaysia or not.

You can find the information from the sidewall of your tire.

Attached thumbnail(s)

Yes it's 280/A/A.

Just installed. Later will do more testing

195/50/16? Price bro?

Yes, RM210/pc

how is the noise level ??? if compared to Michelin XM2

How is it compare with CC6, XM2, Triplemax Assurance and v12evo?

CC6, XM2, Triplemax Assurance cannot be compared to TR1, different level

Honestly I am never a fan of Toyo tyres.

Tr1 higher?

In terms of performance, yes. Tr1 is performance tyre. It'll have better grip, handling, braking distance.

owh... Tyres Pro quote RM240/pcs 😅

Ya, most tyre shop in KL is that price. But you get a free Targus bag if u buy 4 piece at that price.

U want cheaper go to tyre shops in Klang

waa ok will ask that tomorrow then 👍👍👍

just installed this tyre for rm150 using 185/55/15 size, i put it at the back so can't test on many aspects, dry grip is good but i was comparing to my previous t1r which is already 5 years old

Can advice if you know the price for 185/60r15 or 195/55r15?
for Toyota Vios... lol~

Just found out Treadwear 280 is around 32,443KM...

Got the UTQG (such as threadwear) rating from your tires?

Nope

Go to lazada and find out the price

There is no UTQG info on the TR1, apart from saying it is made in Malaysia.

Thanks for the info

i thought it's made in Japan

Just installed.

195 55 15 have around rm 175-180+-

Definitely fitting these when my Oem Goodyears wear out. Price not much different from the new Goodyear ATM2 for 185/55/16

Hope someone can share some experiences about this new TR1...
Tyre shop quoted me RM330 /pc for size 215/55/R16.

stil quite new.not much review.read a lot from members poor wet grip.anyway need to try yourself for real experience.

Yep still quite new. Wow still same as T1R poor wet grip?

330/pcs quite high thou, got it at 240/pcs before raya... so far travel to Kelantan and back KL with dry & rain weather. Feels ok I so far on tire grip

unless they use good material which help in aquaplaning.

Compound material affects the grip without puddles. For puddles, it's the tread patterns that plays the role to pump out the water from underneath the tire.

Thanks for sharing~ 240/pcs size same as mine? If same then I might need to look around for cheaper price.

Just Installed. So far so good

Made in malaysia?

How's the noise level compare to CC6?

My ear said less noisy than Hankook Ventus V2... CC6 more silence I guess, long time not use 😅

Yes i believe.

My "long" humble initial review of TR1.
Been using it for 2weeks now. 1000km
Before i begin let me lay down the basic info bout my car and how do i drive.

60-40ratio. 60 highways, 40 usual street.
Weekend tauge roads.

Car. Perodua axia, Running on 15inch 7jj rims. Tyre spec 195/50. Suspension adjustable coilovers with UR Bars.

Previous tyres
1) PS3
2) ree003
3) ecopia ep300 (cause cheap and ppl did say can do tauge, so i try......)

Location;
Mainland penang, kulim, island.


Pros.

1) price. Hands down. Bloody cheap compared directly to Ps3 and re003.
195/50/15 for PS3 Is bout 240-260.
Ree003 bout 220-250
I got my set of TR1 tyres, Allignment and balancing in, (inclusive a free lappy bag) 185 each.

2) NVH.
I feel TR1 is very very silent, my personal view, i say on par with the PS3, or maybe a tad little bit better, when comes to road noise (Both when tyres are new). Definitely much more silent than ree003. Now even with 1000km in, still pretty silent, especially at higher speeds. (130-160kmh). When running over water puddles or wet roads, i would say i am impressed, quite silent. Alot of the usual noise i hear is no longer present for time being. Hope it last for a while. Atleast to 50% threadwear..
As for ride quality comfort. TR1 walls are much stiffer, which i personally like, compared to the squishy PS3 but not as stiff as ree003. Ride feels more firm but hitting potholes or uneven surfaces will sakit hati abit more, not as forgiving as PS3. Those who use adjustables would know, soft wall tyres dont really give good "comfort", feels like the car have the mini bouncing feel. TR1 and Ree003, so far i say its more comfortable than ps3 in terms of ride quality with adjustables. (Personal preference)


3) Dry grip.
Im very impressed. I will rate it on par as Ree003.
It is very very sticky. Car feels very planted. No matter how i throw my ride, feels very stable and confident.

4) wet grip
I had the chance to test several times this week cause now heavy thunder storms. I really feel confident, hard braking and cornering in the rain also feels very planted. Hit some water puddles, feels stable. I did try cruise 90-100 on highway with rain, feels stable. Ill rate it on par as PS3. Ree003 don't handle wet really well. Very scary

5) braking
I feel my brakes bout the same. For all 3. Never really go try E braking. But feels confident hard braking to enter corners.

6) RR (roll resistance)
Funny thing. I feel TR1 mcm lighter.? Car easier to move, compared to the other two.

7) Cornering (Tauge)
Grip is fantastic, doesn't throw, very hard to get skid sounds. Steering response is sharp. Feels very much like ree003. Thanks to the stiffer walls, doesn't feel like the car rolls as much as when using PS3. Usually i need crank up dampening a few clicks for PS3 when tauge to compensate the roll, but for TR1, i didn't change my setup and it was superb. Will try different settings next weekend.

Cons.
1000km and two trips of tauge roads.
Can see thread wear quite abit.


Conclusion.
For the price i would say definite worth the try. Still too early though to recommend to those who want to find alternative to their ree003/ps3 or even the eagle. Sorry 15inch wheels no PS4..
But i won't recommend to those who only drive normally, don't do tauge or stuff due to the threadwear. Not exactly economical. Not much details bout it but i assume its similar to the other two, maybe 280? bout 30k km? Till botak? But if you don't mind. Then okay.

Wah, such a good review for 1k KM. Thank. I will consider this tyre because im comparing with micehlin XM2 plus also
im planning to get 1 set for my car with (195/60/15) size and price is total RM 780 with free alignment n balancing.
so the treadwear on the tyre is 280 ?

Hi all, need advise/feedback from you all.

Now a bit stuck to choose either TR1 or V701.

FYI. The current V12E2 come to the ends. After around 2.5years.

Should be around there. Haha
No clear info from official sites, but in FB there some ppl said 280. Not even printed on the tayar.
Btw the review only for first 1K. Im more interested to see whether it manage to hold its performance until 70-80 % threadwear like PS3

How are you finding the TR1s with your Persona? Also, can share why you went 195/55/15 vs 185/55/15?

i wonder how it would fare against falken fk510

My guess is FK510 is better because it's already proven better than even the higher Toyo T1 Sport.

Is toyo tyre better then continental ?

For Honda City 2017...is it recommended to change from default size 175/65/R15 to 195/55/R15?

I plan to change to this TR1...

Nice review 👍👍👍 feels much better now 😅😅😅

Maybe you can check at door if got sticker of suitable size to be use with your car... but may differ if it's not original rims.

Nope, in general Continental is much better than Toyo. Continental is already premium brand tire at the same level as Michelin and Goodyear while Toyo is still mid level brand similar to Falken and Hankook.

Continental is a premium brand but not with the local models that we have here like CC6, UC6 and MC6.


You're right Continental is a premium brand. But I don't know why Malaysia only get local made models like the rubbish CC6, UC6 and so on. Why can't we get CPC6 and all of the good stuff Europe get. I know you can get imported CSC and some other UHP COntinentals but at a massive premium. Might as well buy Michelin at that price. This is why I no longer buy and recommend others Continentals after 2 bad experiences with MC5 and CC5.
