Per Unregistered P	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.

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! Instagram : Nick16vt

Per Unregistered P	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...

T1 Sport is the new tyre, and different to the old ones. Last edited by Robfow; 21/09/2014 20:44.

laurysr Unregistered L	Have toyos on mine they supposed to be loud , but cant hear that becouse of exhaust note 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. Last edited by laurysr; 10/02/2015 08:25.

Per Unregistered P	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.
