Toyo Proxes 4 Plus All Season Tires

Anyone using Proxes 4 + as replacement for RS/SS PZeros? Feedback on tire sites have been good on other vehicles. Thanks for inputs in advance.

Well I have Toyo Proxes STII's and I am very happy with them. Low road noise, good traction in the turns and during hard acceleration and they look nice. I have not really driven them in the rain much, so I can't speak to that, but I have put about 2k miles on them and they dont look like they have worn any tread at all.

I've had Toyo Proxes4's all season tires on my SS for 3 years now. I use them
the year around. Quiet, long wearing, good traction- Nothing not to like imo.

Had a 275/40/17 Toyo Proxes 4s on an old car and they work fine, but I always thought they were a little noisy.....Car did run 1.5/1.6 60 foots on the tires, but it was AWD

I've had them on for about 10k. So far so good. Had them in the snow,and we had snow this past season. Found in the snow that if you just feather the throttle on start off,they grip fairly well. Just have to adapt to the conditions and they are fine.

I paid just over $1,000.00 balanced and installed including tax 3 years ago for my Toyo Proxi4 tires.
Have the prices come down for these ?

$748 delivered from Tread Depot (November 2013). $60 install at NTB (nicked one of my rims though). Much improved wet and light snow traction. Will update at 10,000 miles. Pzeros summer performers were a little scary in temps below 30 degrees.
