Toyo Tire Proxes RR

The Toyo Tire Proxes RR stands out for its perfect dry grip and handling scores, making it a prime choice for drivers focused on dry performance. Its 50,000-mile treadwear warranty is a significant advantage over the category average, promising longer life without sacrificing too much in terms of performance. In the ultra-high performance summer category, dry grip and handling are paramount, and the Proxes RR excels in these areas with scores of 10 each. However, its wet grip score of 7 falls short of the category average of 7.6, which is a potential drawback for those who encounter wet conditions frequently. The comfort and noise levels are on par with the category averages, maintaining a balance for everyday usability. When compared to competitors like the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, which offers better wet grip, the Proxes RR may not be the first choice for those prioritizing wet weather performance. However, its longer treadwear warranty and strong dry performance make it a compelling option for dry-condition enthusiasts. If wet grip is a priority, consider the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. Otherwise, the Proxes RR is a strong contender for those who value dry performance and longevity in a summer tire.
