I need to replace my Toyo R888 on the rear before Maggie Valley. I got 5k miles on it and it is shot. I was thinking of something a little better for wet weather, Looking online I see the Toyo T1R and the Nitto NT555 G2. Anybody have any comments on these tires? I am sure they won't get me outta the hole as quick at a hot and sticky R888, but they might be better in the wet.
The R888 is 315/30-20. The T1R and Nitto come in 305/30-20. I can live with slightly smaller.
My other option is to get another R888 and bring my stock tires in cast of rain.
