Fitting Toyo R1R’s to NFSZEN


Video by S9.

I’ve been a massive fan of Toyo Tyres ever since I bought a set of R888’s for the GT-R over 6+ years ago. I’ve since had R888’s on most of my daily driver builds (20+ cars most of which have been handling/inspired). This year I’ve secured sponsorship from Toyo and I’m still pinching myself about it. IE: I’ve had many “sponsorship” deals over the years, many of them have been sweet, but when a brand that you truly love comes to the party it’s just fucking unbelievable!

When I found out that Toyo Tyres were in the Need For Speed the game, and that we were building an S15 for Need For Speed, it was only natural that we put Toyo’s on the car. The guys have come to the party with some fat R1R’s, 235 front 255’s in the rear. The R1R is an aggressive street tyre. Not quite a semi-slick, but dan close to one. The car was on 4 different tyres before and losing grip on boost as well as understeering and oversteering on wet roads. Now she’s more of a grip monster!
