    Where? They don't even list them on Toyo's website.
    
    Goodyear used to do the F1 in 14" but they stopped them a few years ago.

    Kumho V70a's are better, they are amazing in the dry and stil very good in the wet..We use them on our rally car and they really are awesome..The car came with a set of R888's and we found they would go off quite easily, but maybe in rallying tyres get hotter with all the heavy braking and accelerating etc..
