Toyo Proxes T1 Passenger Performance Tire: Soft sidewall with sloppy handling in turns

Fri, 4 May 2007 16:17:15 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author kevinrc - This tire is rated AA traction and A temperature. It received high marks from consumer reports. However, in the 205/55-15 size I have driven it with, it is a very soft, sloppy-handling tire which squeals around smooth pavement in turns. I have tried...

Mon, 29 Jan 2007 23:09:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ambell - I bought a set of T1Rs about a year ago to replace the dangerously inadequate OEM Bridgestone Potenza RE92A on the family wagon (2004 Toyota Matrix XRS 6M). This car is driven by several members of the family (chores on the weekend and groceries during...

Toyo Proxes T1 Passenger Performance Tire: the price of excellence

Wed, 15 Nov 2006 15:48:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author isenbergh1 - The best sporty tire I'd driven in my previous experience were the Dunlop SP 5000 asymmetricals --classified as "Ultra Performance all-season" tires, very sticky & a fine all-around tire, but a bit sluggish in response, or "turn-in." By comparison,...

Toyo Proxes T1 Passenger Performance Tire: T1-S Review

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pmathern - This is an excellent street tire. The previous tires on my '89 bmw 325is were falken azenis 215s. Compared to these tires, the toyos are a much nicer street tire with almost as much dry grip. These tires are nice and quiet, and the ride quality is...

Toyo Proxes T1 Passenger Performance Tire: Toyo T1-R Tires vs Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3

Fri, 17 Mar 2006 17:20:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bluscombe - After buying the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3s for my BMW 540i (6 speed manual) and returning them due to their terrible off the line traction, I am very pleased with the T1-Rs... note: the T1-Rs are the new replacement for the T1-S, which was rated #2 by Car...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author onefastdriver - I've driven the T1-s on two different Prelude SH's - a 98 and a 2001 for a combined total of about 20,000 miles. Wear There's no doubt that the Toyo T1-S wears very quickly. However, some of accelerated wear could be attributed to my Prelude SH's...

Toyo Proxes T1 Passenger Performance Tire: STOP ! DON'T BUY THESE IF YOU GO ROUND CORNERS !

Mon, 24 Jan 2005 17:10:22 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author ejax - I read a lot of online reviews of these before buying and they were nearly all positive. All I can say is that none of the reviewers can ever go around corners fast. These are worse than any cheaper or budget tyre in the wet or dry. I drive a 200bhp 2.2...

Mon, 29 Dec 2003 18:32:32 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jwolfgram - I drive a Porsche 911, and much of the weight is over the rear tires. I replaced Bridgestone Potenza RE71's on the rear with Toyo ST-1s with some radical results. First, let me say that the ST-1 is a VERY STICKY tire. Great traction, wet and dry. I was...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wchp - The Toyo T-1S was a replacement for a set of Dunlop Sport 8000's that I was running as summer tires. I use these on a 99 VW Passat with a modified suspension and are mounted on 16" 14lb forged wheels in an effort to keep un-sprung weight down. In a long...

Toyo Proxes T1 Passenger Performance Tire: Excellent high performance sport tire.

Tue, 3 Dec 2002 23:42:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author openroad - Introduction

To start things off, I have had alot of experience with sporty tires, but never with a "ultra performance" D.O.T. legal race tire. That is the category I consider these tires to be under. I have owned quite a few sports...

Tue, 30 Jul 2002 18:18:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mschlocker - Since I just went out and bought my first sports car, I decided that it needed tires to match its personality. After all, tires are the #1 modification you can do to improve your handling. I'd have to say that these are the best (read stickiest) tires...
