Toyo stick tires

Phillip marvetz · 10-06-2010, 11:43 AM

Rory,
There is a les schwab just across the Aldergrove border crossing on birchbay lynden rd just east of the guide. . You may want to ask a few people that have run the toyo's before you buy a set though, Everybody that I know that has used a set got rid of them in short order. If you come down let me now, You can see my house from the parking lot.

Tim & Phil, I checked on the Toyo & the Les Schwab websites, and I didn`t see any mention of these deal, although I heard Toyo has done this sale before. Since my car is a stick, I figured for $200. or so, I`d like to give the Toyos a try. Plus I could likely benefit from the slightly shorter 29" Toyo`s.
Phil, if I do go to the Les Schwab store near you, I`ll let you know. Thanks.

We run them on our stocker and have no complaints. No, they are not the optimum slick and yes, the radials would be better, but at 2 for 1 it's a good deal. We have run a best 60 ft. of 1.56 with an '85 Olds Cutlass with a 307.
They have also been very consistent. they run back to back ET's on all tracks.

Peter Dodge used them on his B/S Camaro worked just fine. He used an 8 or 9 inch rim. TOYO told me they didn't work with 10's. I tried them all except TOYOs. The Hoosiers were the second quickest with my old sets of Firestones the best, but the Hoosiers really last. But that was just on my car your car/setup might like something different.
