Tyre reviews Toyo Proxes T1R. Page 7 3480

Fantastic handling. Communicating with the driver, you can really ride on the edge and precisely know when the grip is lost. Had Continental SportContact and Goodyear Eagle F1 before, but this is actually better.

Tires were fine on dry roads, but on wet roads the traction was terrible, even when new. Got worse as they wore out, to the point where they needed to be replaced after 10,000 miles, as they were borderline hazardous. Definitely not recommended.

Good traction in dry, not so good in wet, but they are listed as a summer tire. They are still okay in the wet. Just lasted me 6k from spirited driving, though! Got rim protection lip, which is amazing. I did manage to lose the sidewall lettering, though to indicate spirited driving.

One tire had a slow leak since purchase, so I had to fill it with air every day. When I went back to the installers to get it installed, they sprayed something inside that actually worked. They didn't offer a replacement, so now I'm stuck with it until I can afford a replacement. Not satisfied. Also, the traction wasn't as good as my old Goodyear Eagle F1's.

My car is heavily turbo'd and killed them in less than a year (normal), however, they did do well in rain/poor conditions. Toyo T1S is my preference over Toyo T1R (T1S lasts longer and does well in rain). Now I'm running Sport Azeni's. Proxie T1R is still not a bad tire if you drive hard core, but not track and want something for all conditions.

A truly big tyre, especially for lightweight sports cars. Fantastic grip on wet road if they warm up first! High wear rate is the only drawback.

Used for road use and motorsport (Hillclime & Sprint). Does a good job of doing both. Fantastic in the wet when new - not so good after a few thousand kilometers but still good.

Very impressive tires for the price. High performance yet durable. Lasted much longer than the Eagle F1s I had before and still performs just as well. Additionally, I put them on my Leon Cupra R. recommend.

They only lasted 2 months and I didn't drive Abnormaly. I was told they were soft tires and it showed. Never pushed the tires to the limit. No complaints with the handle, just didn't wear, but knew that when I bought them. I'm just surprised at how much though

In accordance with the recommendations of many MGF / MGT owners, I agree that they are the best for this make / model and offer unmatched grip in all weather conditions (although rated as 'summer' tyres).
