How do you guys like the Toyo T1S? I'm thinking about getting a set in 17" for my car.

What do you want to know about them?

I have them on my SSR's....had a set of S-03's before that. Relative to the S-03's, I'm hearing MORE noise, feel the shofter sidewall, and wet traction isn't that much better. Given the choice all over again, I'd go with another set of S-03's.

Compared to ES100's, the T1-S's are definitely better. The Proxes are also pretty light.

I've heard things about the S-03's tramlining. That's why I was looking into the S-03's. I was also considering Michelin PS2's. But I dont really like the look of that tire.

I think the T1-S's suck compared to RE070's and probably the S0-3s. But it also depends what you want out of the tire. Toyo's will offer a more civil ride over the Bridgestones and maybe a little extra wet traction. Dry traction, the RE070's are much better, not sure of the S0-3's. If you car will see the track, get the Bridgestones, the T1-S's I've seen at the track look like they went through WWIII after 20 min. My RE070's held up really well after 6 20 min sessions and so did the SO-3's that my buddy was running. I have not personally driven the T1-S on the track so my wet/dry observation is from driving them on the street.
