Description Toyo Proxes 4
The Toyo Proxes 4 tire is offered worldwide. At the same time, in some regions, it is positioned by the Japanese manufacturer as an all-season tire, which testifies to its versatile capabilities. They are provided through the use of advanced technologies and the latest materials in the tire design, which, in fact, characterizes all representatives of the "sports" Proxes line, which is at the very top of the entire Toyo model range.
Increased silica content in the compound
A significant part of the tire's traction properties, especially on wet roads, is ensured by the silica, which makes up more than half of the rubber mixture of the tire's tread. It was possible to increase its content due to polymeric compounds that provide uniformity of the compound at the molecular level, while improving its tear resistance. This feature provides the tread with integrity when driving at high speeds and high-temperature exposure.
Unique W-shaped tread pattern
A distinctive feature of the aggressive design of the tire's tread is the structure of its central part. Here, two rows of arrow-shaped blocks are located, which form an original W-shaped pattern. In addition to its impressive appearance, such a design has excellent functionality and performance. In real operation, it manifests itself in the form of excellent traction on dry roads, excellent directional stability, and maneuverability.
Key features of Toyo Proxes 4
- A compound with increased silica content improves traction on wet roads and resistance to wear, increases resistance to high-temperature exposure;
- The original W-shaped tread pattern gives the tire excellent performance in any conditions;
- Increased resistance to aquaplaning due to the location of most drainage grooves at a sharp angle against the direction of movement;
- A wavy longitudinal rib in the center improves directional stability;
- Sinusoidal lamellas in the shoulder areas increase longitudinal traction properties, prevent uneven wear, and provide a smooth ride.
