I have R1R s on my turbo 2+2 (Matthews old car) these are great for fast road an handle the torque that previous tyres couldn't. Also done 2 trips to France some in torrential rain and had no problems. 2+2 is a bit heavier than the Xtreme though.

I'm now using Contisport Contact 2 which have truly amazing wet and dry grip, but might be too noisy / uncomfortable for some (yyres are a compromise, I prioritise safety). I have, by the way, always found performance to be strongly linked to price.

It sounds like they need some heat in them to work, which on cold mornings isn't going to happen. What is your Xtreme usage, mostly track or road? I'd be interested to hear why an 'expert' thinks the TR1 wouldn't be suitable.

My car gets fast road use, wet and dry, so I need an all round tyres. Energy saver tyres are out, because the job of a tyre is to stick to the road, not to have minimal rolling resistance. The Toyo TR1 sounds like a decent tyre, but wondering if anyone else has fitted something else that would be recommended. Lots of complaints that this tyre has soft side walls, but that would be well suited to an Xtreme, rather than a 2 ton car.
