Tires Toyo or DUNLOP

I wanted a cool looking and well working tire. Read several reviews and decided to go a mid-way in price/performance depending on weather conditions in Latvia in summer, so today I got a new set of Toyo Proxes T1R for the summer season

I have about 10K on my '13 TTS. Just changed over to my snows and the original Toyos still look near brand new. Front and back looked about the same in wear.

I run 245/40/17 Dunlop Direzza star spec at the track, they have been great

YES< Subaru ahs better AWD, but put on Tig good snow tires like Dunlop M3 or Pirelli or Michelin, and there is no obstacle. I used those tires on FWD and RWD cars in Southern Alps and never had issues, never got stuck, always break on a dime. With 4Motion they are unstoppable.

Everyone stretched Toyo T1Rs because they best UHP but also very stretchable so best of both world what with being dope stance PLUS late night touge runs will win every time.

just imagine the time if those ****ty dunlop all sesasons were replaced with a decent michelin pilot a/s, bf goodrich g force kdw, or continental extreme contact dws. guaranteee that time would drop by another half second or so.

Good news: the breaks/tires worked GREAT for stopping quickly for an accident in front of me.

I didn't have as much tire noise with the Bridgestones as I do now with my Toyo Proxies ZR4's. These tires can get a bit loud, especially around 40 mph and at 80 mph.

That exact same thing happened to my 2014 CX-5 GT. Toyo's warranty is no good, they ask you to ship the tires for them to evaluate warranty claims, ended up throwing them out and getting Pirellis.

We sold these at the tire center a I worked at. We rarely had a repeat customer get them twice. They always upgraded to the Toyo MT, and that wasn't us being pushy salesmen. We always asked why, and the regular complaints were the loud drone from the tires at freeway speeds and they didn't last for jack under the heavier trucks. 40K miles was on the high side of things.
