Bill Cardell, Dealer Alternative DOES carry Toyo, and at very competitive
prices.
I pretty much agree with kevin's tire assesments. from top to
bottom(leaving race rubber off the list):
T1's
AVSi's (kinda tied with RE71's - don't last as long, better grip, expensive)
RE71's (Kinda tied with AVSi's - last longer VERY well behaved, inexpensive)
509's, d40's, SP8000's (yeah I know, but I'm not crazy about the dunlops
after owning and driving quite a few)
d60's and other 'standard' type tires.
