I agree with you, they are good tires, a little grippier than the Toyos, and they were a great buy at the close-out prices. The new Hankooks are supposed to be a bit better, I'd like to try them out but haven't had the opportunity yet.
To some degree the tires you like depend on your driving style, the Toyos really like to slide around in my experience, and to be fast on them you have to drive at fairly high slip angles.
If I were buying tires right now, I'd look at R1 first, and the new Hankook second.
That said I picked up a SET of Hoosier wets on Rennlist for $325
