I ran T1-S's all last DE season (and will probably this season as well). At full tread they were a bit squirmy, but as the tread wears they feel better and better. Back in Oct I was probably running by best lap times at SP yet and the tires stuck right in there (within their non-R limits, of course). I make sure to keep them around 40psi hot and havent felt them get greasy/slippery yet. Due to somewhat soft side walls and tall tread, they do tend to roll/chunk a bit under hard turn in, but again it gets better as the tread wears. Previous tires were BFG RE-71's (old but great tires also) and would think their replacements are just as good, if not better.
