Question

Anyone have experience with Toyo tires? I have a set of Proxes T-1 plus and think they are VERY noisy, especially now that they are almost gone. Anyone have the same opinion?

My first set of performance tires were Toyo Proxes. I didn't notice any sort of noise whatsoever. They were great.

Had Proxes FZ-4's on my older car and they were quite, but they sucked in the rain on that car. Of cousre it was FWD with about 230HP at the wheels and only weighs about 2650lb, so it's hard to get traction anyway's.

But they're AWESOME in the dry!

I'm sure the T-1's are much better.

POS Nittos? What happen Bit? I've had both Nittos and Toyos and I didn't find anything about the Toyos that really made me like them more than the Nittos (555 Extremes)...
