Does anyone know the difference between Toyo Proxes T1S and T1R

I have just noticed I have T1S 225/50 ZR15 on the front and T1R 245/24 ZR16 on the back.

24 - must look like rolls of insulating tape hehe

I personally wouldn't worry too much about the front to back difference. There is probably far more difference between two tyres of different sizes than there is between two tyres of different makes/type.
IMO if you have two same make/type tyres of the right speed rating in similar condition on the same axle I wouldn't worry about it.
At the risk of putting these cars down(I own one) they are not F1 cars wink

T1-R replaced the T1-S and so has a slightly different tread pattern.
