Not sure about other brand, but I can comment on proxes T1R. As we know, it's ability to prevent aquaplaning is very good. But the side wall for me is too soft. On dry surface, if u inflate around 28-31psi, and take fast corner, the soft side wall give a very less feedback to your steering. Grip quite good, but u will only notice u start to under steer (for fwd car) when u hear the tyre screaming. If u inflate around 32-35psi, the feedback is better but the grip just a bit better than cheap/normal tyre. This is just my experience.

Yup, got same experience like you. Normal inflation, sidewall too soft. When pump 35psi, ride is horrid, damn bumpy.
Aquaplane resistance is good but grip is not too good as in my turbo wheel spin in the wet......:banghead:

too much boost :biggrin:
Standard engine of 0.6 only. And If quick take off from stationary in the wet, then yes it may slip, but it was on the highway, about to change lane, I think was at about 80kph then change to 3rd and step on accelerate to change lane, but the tyres just gave way and spin...:banghead:

Agree. T1R aquaplaning resistance is good. But wet traction not as good as my previous RE002.

The Chinese auto industry is on a roll with possible penetration of the American market with an electric vehicle by one of its automakers, BYD. Now there’s talk that another automaker is looking to acquire a 30 per cent stake in German transmission maker Getrag. Yes that Getrag, the same one that makes the cog swappers for the Toyota Supra JZA80 and the Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R.
