i've had both the trz and touring-s on our yarii and liked them both, however, the trz had an abnormally large center channel that would get rocks stuck in all the time. it drove me nuts hearing the little 'clicks' at low speeds constantly!

true, we've had a few people gripe about this. The overall quality (and price point) of the tire seems to override this issue for most folks, but I had one guy INSIST on a different tire because of this. It's OK, just sold him Michelin Harmony instead .

Ive been curious about these tires as well. Ill be needing tires aoon and cannot decide to stay stock or go up to 16s...

Ive been eyeing up the toyo extensa...great price and seems to have a decent blend performance and rolling resistance
