Hi, read a lot of positive views on the Toyo Proxies here, so I ordered a set. Toyo PROXES T1 Sport 225/35 ZR18

Has anybody experienced the massive roadnoise like I do? More roadroar than noise, really. smile

Mine are quite noisy, but they are sitting on my 2 tonne T4 so would expect a little more noise than usual.

Per - so have you fitted T1-R or T1-S?

People generally fit the T1-R, from what I've read the T1-S are meant to be a bit rubbish. I think Nigel even sent a set back due to poor handling with them?

I fitted a set of T1-Rs a couple of weeks ago and they have been great. No noticeable increase in road noise!

All I could find was T1 Sport, I suppose that's T1S then..?
Certainly not the best tires no.

Tried to find Michelin Pilot Sport's but they seem unavailable in my size...

I think T1-S was replaced by T1-RyeRs ago, but if you search now you find T1 Sport, just to confuse!

Think it was PX4s that Nigel found rubbish.

T1-R replaced T1-S. T1 Sport is the new tyre, and different to the old ones.

Have toyos on mine they supposed to be loud , but cant hear that becouse of exhaust note wink otherwise doing 70 on motorway and shifting to neutral they are abit too loud .

But on the other hand they are grippy for the price.

Yeah they were ok. Did both Spa and Nurburgring in sept. with no problems.
I'd rather have the new Good Year F1's or Continental's on a Coupetho.
