Default Who rides with Toyo Proxes 1?

Gents, Ladies,

Who rides with Toyo Proxes 1? Just because I may be able to get discounts on these.

I am seriously considering this set. Are they worth the ride?

Replacing my Pirelli Zero Nero's RFT which ride like rocks!

Thanks in advance.

my OEM Dunlop run flats.

Just watch the tyre speed ratings. I had Toyo Proxes c1-S tyres and while I loved them the speed rating was W vs the Y required. I also found they had lousy rim protection. Other than that, great tyres.

Thanks for the input guys.

Only reason I went for the Proxes 1’s is because that is what tirerack recommended (or at least that’s the only Proxes they had on the spec width 245-40-18.

As I said only because I may get a good deal on a set of Proxes.

Otherwise I would go with Michelins or Bridgestones from Costco.
