I have the NT450s on my GSR and I love them. They have a very aggressive tread pattern and they stick to the road better than my previous Kumhos did. I definitely recommend them as an upgrade from the Kumhos.
for daily driving and I'm on my second set. For light track use they are great.

I had a set of the NT450s on my Prelude and i had some bad uneven tire wear. Also, as BONE pointed out they are very loud after you put some miles on them. I went with a set of Copper Zeon 2XS and have liked them for the first 5,000 miles.

I have a 98 GSR & when I bought the car the guy have Toyo TS-1's. I would recommend them. They are quiet whether at 80 or 130 mph. They're excellent in the rain also. I still have the reciept from when the last owner bought them in Nov. they costed him $98 each. By the way I have 205-50-15's. When I need some new tires for my 91 Civic SI, GSR or my wifes TL that's what I'll buy...
