New Toyo Proxes R888
Just had my new tires mounted today. OE sizes...
For those of us looking for an alternative to the narrow Sumitomos and Nittos and the expensive Michelins, the F1 GS-D3 was the best alternative. But we all know production is questionable at best. So I did a ton of research and ended up finding what I needed over on the SVT forums. Turns out a lot of those guys run our OE sizes. Universally, they spoke about how wide (and how awesome!) these Toyos are, so I pulled the trigger. WOW, am I glad I did! I posted a pic but it doesn't tell half the story...these things are a FULL 13" WIDE! A full inch wider than my Sumis, and they changed the car. Mind you, my car will never see rain and will only get maybe 2500 miles per year, but the guys on the other forum actually even claim they're OK in the rain. And they stick like glue. If you don't drive your car much and you want a WIDE tire that actually makes the car look like a real ZR-1 (read: fat azz) you should consider them. Last edited by KILLSHOTS; 05-30-2014 at 11:33 AM.
