I don't know what these other guys' problems are.
It depends on what you are using them on. Some cars respond to certain tires better
than others. The R1s are excellent tires with terrific grip. They have a large
slip angle (relative) and are pretty forgiving. My preference is the Yok. A008RS.
These tires have a very narrow slip angle, but superior grip. They will also
outlast almost any other autoX tire made. While at your next autoX, ask some of
the other competitors for advice. AutoX'ers can be very helpful to newcomers.
