Read this as it has both of those tires in the test. For pure dry grip, the ps2's are better for sure.

I have run them both and I prefere the T1R's to the PS2's myself. The T1R's are quieter and stickier IMO than the PS2's...

There are turns I have taken both sweeping and hard turns that the Michelin would break loose on where the TOYO's held their ground. Michelins seem a bit harder where the TOYO's seem softer to me.

ive only had my t1r's for a couple days but all i can say is theyre very sticky (then again im comparing them to the stock tires that came with my oem 17s which i dont even know the brand lol i think theyre goodyear...)
