Tyre reviews Toyo Proxes T1R. Page 8 3480

Although very highly recommended as a tire performance, they are much smoother and quieter and slightly less precise than the OEM Bridgestones. Very soft sidewalls give a slower response to steering wheel turn. Needs higher pressure than recommended by Mazda, but very easy to live with. Cuts road noise by about 50%

These tires were also perfectly suitable for my Ford Puma, the grip is phenomenal and the tire wear is barely noticeable, shame I bought this second set from Alloywheels.com which gave me the wrong wheels, then refused to give my money back!

To be honest, I wasn't impressed with them. They gripped fine in the dry, and I don't think they were too bad on a wet road, but then they gave up on a soft corner on a slightly damp road at 40mph and ended up spinning a couple of times. I got about 11,500 miles out of them (including after the accident) and actually complained to mytyres that I should have had to replace them so soon. Since then I've had

Good tires for the price. The only drawback is that it tends to squeal loudly when turning into a parking lot and very early when pushed on the highway, compared to other tires I've used.

I first purchased these tires as I had heard how quiet they were. After driving on them and wearing a set after 28,000 miles, which is a huge step up from the original Continentals that were taken off after 9,000, I was more than happy to re-equip the same tire again.

These tyres have been on various cars including performance Hondas (Accord Type R / S2000 / Prelude) a Saab Turbo and now my Alfa. They have always performed well in all conditions, for the money I don't think you can go wrong.

If they were on a front wheel drive track, they were excellent for the money. HOWEVER they really didn't suit the RWD RX8 and had less grip in cold weather than the Bridgestone RE050 with half the tread. Won't be buying again, they need a lot of heat to work well and don't suit the RX8 at all.

A bit more flexible than the Goodyear F1 I had before, but a godsend of a tire. They were very handy in the recent snow. I'm also using them on my Prius, and they've lasted very well for almost 40k km

Good TYRE, noise in the media, but limited life: only 35,000 km and it's a fine! And 80% of those km are highway miles!

Used them on my TVR too. Steering is lighter, less harsh ride, eliminates tramlining (very bad with Michelins and Bridgestones. Wear not as good, and some tyres "moan" at 65mph.
