Performs much better in the wet than the previous model, with a typical tread. Maybe it is a little louder but does better in ruts and absorbs shocks better.

I have changed my old Semperit Speed Life tyres for these Toyo Proxes T1-R. The size is 215/50R17. All Toyo tyres are characterized by an outstanding grip on a dry surface. They are very predictable on a dry road. They are not so good in a wet weather but I think it may be connected with a vehicle weight. Probably in lighter cars they do their job a way better. The Toyo Proxes T1-R tyre is a bit louder than its predecessor. But it is not a disadvantage. After doing about 3500 miles I have noticed the first signs of wear. They were a bit loud at the beginning but now everything is ok. I think they rather should not be mounted on heavy vehicles (the weight of my Vauxhall Vectra is over 1,5 t). Generally speaking, these are good tyres for good money. If you have a compact car, I would like to fully recommend the Toyo Proxes T1-R. I you have a bigger vehicle, I would think twice before making a purchase as they are not so perfect in wet conditions. In my opinion, there are no ideal tyres for rainy weather but I can see a clear difference between my old Semperit and these Toyo Proxes in terms of their wet grip performance.

Some properties of this tyre are hard to judge because I have this model on my car's rear axle, The car had a likeliness to oversteer in wet conditions, but it is very easy to overcome.

Great looking tyres which give good driveability for the summer and autumn, but you have to be careful when expecting snow, because tread is completely unsuitable for slippery surfaces.

I would recommend. The tire works both when driving fast on the highway and mountain serpentine. For dry goods on the wet asphalt also give you advice.

Price, design and quality are great advantages of this tyre. It is quite hard, whichis visible when fitting, but it is sensational during hot days, it's not sticky, nicely goes into corners and there are no problems on wet surfaces.
