Reviews of Toyo tires

I have had the proxes 4 on my 24v 2.8l for 12k miles now. Wear has been ok, would have been better if I had bought a seperate set of wheels/tires for autocross. I have not driven them in the snow yet so no idea how they will do. They do handle rain pretty well, and overall Im happy.

I had the Toyo FZR's (I think) on my all-season 1.8T. Not the best by any stretch, but not too shabby in the muck either. Got me through 2 winters and only 1 time was I sweatin' with grip problems.

toyos wear fast.

i had those on my porsche, very very nice tires, but then i only got to drive in the snow once with them, seemed fine, i didn't have any problems with them

I put T1S's on my 96 GTI last spring (on SSR Comps), and by October (maybe 7-8000 miles later) they developed a really irritating humming sound -- this despite being well balanced, inflated properly and cared for (no curb jumping, pothole hitting or other abuse). Couldn't see any evidence of cupping or unusual wear, but they just got annoyingly loud. Nothing turning up the radio couldn't drown out though.

I can speak to the Toyo's from experience. I had them on my RSX-S, 225-45-17. I can only rate them as moderate. Grip is good, but not great. Certainly no better than F1's. Sidewall stiffness also is good, but not great. Press on the sidewall of an un-inflated T1-S, and you'll see. They are not terribly stiff. One thing I would give them an "F" on is noise. They were noticeably louder than the stock Michelines I had when new. And by 20k miles, they absolutely howled. I personally won't buy them again.

Go with Toyo T1-s Proxes 195/45/14. I have them on my P-slots. A bit pricey, but I love them.

They will last you the longest and offer superb grip once they are warmed up.

Dry traction is great, Ill be able to give you a better idea when i get my suspension installed this week. No noise at all, ive put a couple thousand miles on the tires. The tires are surprisingly quiet. So far so good

just got some put on my ride yesterday. I am very pleased so far. We had a ton of rain here yesterday and the new shoes grip like mad on wet pavement.
