Opinions on tires-Dunlop vs toyo
I am getting some new tires to replace my badly worn falken ziex, and I am having trouble deciding which tires to buy. I am buying tires from a place that mainly has dunlop and toyo for good tires. There are 4 tires that i am trying to choose from.
I live in south dakota so i drive in hot summer days, rain, snow, slush, and everything else. I don't really care about wet traction or snow, i just want a good looking tire that gets good traction. It is my daily driver and the only racing that is done is drag racing. Here are the 4 tires
Toyo proxes Fz4-
Toyo proxes 4-
Toyo proxes t1s-
Dunlop SP sport 5000-
I really like the tread design of the t1s, but I heard they have mushy sidewalls along with the other proxes. I don't know much about the dunlops but they are are really cool looking tire. I just want some opinions on the tires from experience and whatever else. Price for the tires isn't really an option so don't take that into consideration
I am thinkin of getting 195/50/15 due to the 2" drop that i will have-any other size recomendations?
sorry for the long post-thanks in advance

I had Toyos on my last car and I wasn't so thrilled about them. I would go with some BF Goodrich or Nitto, but you should do some searches on those tires and see what you find. I would lean more towards the Dunlop, but that's just me.
