After an exhaustive SFTA -- anyone running Toyo Proxes 4?

SKIroad'r · 04-10-2008, 08:51 PM

I run dedicated snows so looking for a summer tire

Car will have zero trackdays
I want a good wet/dry handler
Good treadlife
Reasonable ride (confortable and quiet) -- this is the family hauler
90% of travel is on highways but I am a bit spirited behind the wheel

These would be mounted on 18's

The Toyos seem to be the cloest thing under $200 a corner. Best price I found is $175 with free shipping. Anyone seen better?

I have ran both, and the falkens out perform the toyos in handling and price! I live in the NW and the 452 are awesome on the dry, and still perform amazingly well on the wet.
