Default Toyo Proxes T1-S

Ive done a search and im still not satisifed on wether to buy these tires or not because of what people have said on their opinions to these tires. Like soft walls? what does that mean? I really want these tires but dont wanna sacrifice anything.

If anyone has had these tires before and wanna give me a strait opinion on what they thought about them post it up please. I do some drag everynow and than but I also want a tire that handles awesome,other than that its just driving to school and work.

They have great wet traction and excellent dry traction. While dry grip isnt as good as an Azenis tire you really dont need it for daily driving.

If you can get them at a good price they're a great tire.

Great tire for the street in my opinion.

Dry traction is great, wet traction is terrific.

The tires are quiet and will last a long time if you drive conservely.

If you don't plan to race and want a good all around performance tire, I would get them.

I would by another set of T1-S when mine run out.

I've had them on my car for about a month now and they are very good. In the rain, I can't imagine another tire being better.

Dry they are very good, but you do feel a little sidwall flex. My first choice were the Potenza S0-3, but they didn't make them in my size.

Next I think I'll try the Azenis... There are also some other good tires out there, I'm sure someone else will chime in....

Good Luck!

Azenis are horrible in the rain and sound like monster truck tires on the highway though.

I used them on the track last summer (and drove to the track on them) and i really liked them for the price - for a daily driver tire i wouldnt use them again.
