Toyo T1R's suck???

I had 555's which were awesome dry but not so good wet.
Now I have FK452's which are the best tires I have ever had except for the rim protector lip not being there like my 555's.
I was going to try T1R's next but maybe I will stay away.

Toyo uses ALOT of mold release compound on their tires. It can take up to 500 miles to get it all off, or just wipe the tires down with some simple green or orange blast.
You'll be hard pressed to find a tire that can come close to the toyos at the same price point.

Update
Its been about 3 weeks Ive been rockin these T1R's & I'd say a started to notice a better ride around the second week
the weather here in NJ has warmed up a lot & I bet that is a factor because this is a summer tire (like someone pointed out already)
when i first put them on avg temp was high 30's - low 50's
now we are seeing steady 60's & 70's
I'd say these are pretty good once broken-in
Im going to purchase new T1R's for the front this week
