Toyo Proxes 4 tires
Has anybody run these, I used to run toyos on my SE-R and liked them, these were recommended to me by the dealership guys last time I was in, and I'm going to be needing some new tires here soon.
EDIT: I also checked out this link (http://www.1010tires.com/Tires/Reviews/Toyo/Proxes+4) and looked at a bunch of reviews, the overall theme seems to be higher-performing tires, with decent treadwear, with the major complaint being noise at higher speeds. The noise does not concern me, so I'm going to give them a try, then I'll throw down a review on them, thx for the replies

my friend went from his oem advans to the toyo's (all season proxes) 3 years later they still look newish and are starting to rot. He has hated them from day 1, has tried for 3 years to kill them to justify buying new tires and there still ok. his car handles like crap on them, he got beat around a corner by a guy in a dropped cr-v with good tires.
In conclusion if u want to get tires that won't die, get them at the cost of handling but then again they aren't summer tires.

I've had them on my car since 2007 and they are at the point now where they need to be replaced.
They are nice all around performers. I put around 26,000 miles on them and even kept them on during the winter in New England and never had a problem
FWIW, I am going to be switching to Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta tires.

I run the Proxes4 on the Bimmer. Handle good in dry and wet conditions. A little more road noise over the stockers but I'm running a lower profile tire. Heck the tire even held up when I hit an unknown object in the road and shattered the wheel...no damage to the Toyo.
Also have just over 20K miles on them and they are still looking good. Then again, the Bimmer is the family commuter car so don't do a whole lot of crazy driving in it.
