T1S was the earlier model Toyo..... I really like using T1R's for my daily driving tire.

Falken FK-452 is another good street tire.

There is no diffrence between the TE37 and LE37T, other than the polished lip. That's it.

I've been quite satisfied with the Nitto NT555. Good ride, relatively low noise, excellent dry handling although since I don't drive my car in the rain, I can't say how wet handling is. Also, treadwear is rated at 300 so I'm hoping for excellent treadwear.

Just purchased T1R's this weekend after my pilot sport (rear wheel) went to shreds on the atlanta interstate. the T1R's feel really good and are much quieter than the michelins

I'm getting 19.9.5 fronts and 19x10.5 rears and plan to run 255/35/19 and 285/35/19.

The 255/35/19 is closer to the OEM front tire diameter. It will fit a 9.5" wheel without stretching (good if you like the flat sleek look, bad if you like the stretched look). The 255 will protect your front wheel more.

It's hard to find a tire that comes in both 255/35/19 and 285/35/19.
