Tires Toyo or Kumho

Meanwhile, my rears (225/35/18 on a 10) have been fine so far, about a year. Kumho Ecsta PS31.

My Toyo Proxes R1R’s. Only 200TW I’ve ever had, and I got them for an insanely great deal. Once I use them up I’ll eventually upgrade to better tires, but they’re simply my favorite because they’re the one’s I’ve got! Work well for my car and that’s all I can say.

Look at Toyo

I run 275/65r18 Toyo R/T just fine with no rubbing unless it’s at a awkward sharp turn on a steep hill

So I upgraded to new wheels and tires. I had the stock wheels and some el cheapo Chinese HiFly tires. Now I've got JR11 15 inch wheels and Toyo Proxes TR1 205/50. The car sticks to the road and is much quieter. I've much more confidence in the car and it's driving behavior is awesome right now.

V730 are perfect. The wear like iron, are very predictable and most important for a track day tire- don’t have heat cycling issues.

If I could find these tires again id buy them, i have them on a 09 impala and used them for more than two years and had better than normal wear, my summer tires last half these winter tires.

Kumho Ecstas aren’t the best but they’re very affordable and do the job well. More grip, quieter and better ride than OEM.

I just replaced the OEM tires on my 2019 @ 44k miles. The Toyos would have never gotten me through the first snow.

I was originally looking at the new Toyo Observe GSi6 for my winter tires to replace my 6 yo Blizzak DMV2. After further research, I found that the GSi6 tested at or near the bottom of winter tires. Very disappointing for a new tire IMO.
