"Acura tl 3.2 - 205 60 16 - Tire is slightly stiffer than Michelin, but after 20 km tire became noisy."

"'00 BMW 323i - Kevin says: "...Now if I had a BMW with a V6," you'd be a really unique person, as BMW only makes inline 6 engines.. :) Jokes aside, I like this tire."

"Acura Integra 2000 - I got these tires during the summer and they were great tires. Harder than my old Yokohamas but still grips pretty well. I expect they will last much longer than the soft Yoko tires I owned earlier. One word of caution is don't attempt to drive with these in the ice or snow. It's hopeless. Lucky I have a set of winter tires for the winter. These are not all season tires."

"2002 Subaru Impreza WRX - 205/55/16 - I have had these tires for 14,000 miles and have not been completely impresssed with tire wear, especially for a tire with a treadwear rating of 400. Wet cornering is not very impressive and leaves me with very little confidence in the rain, be careful! Snow traction is even worse, especially stopping. My ABS operate at nearly every stop in the snow/ice. I think it is a function of the compound being just too hard for these conditions. My only saving grace is AWD, which makes take offs in snow/ice a breeze and aid in cornering. The dry traction is good but again cornering leaves a lot to be desired as the tire rolls over very easily in aggresive driving. Turn in is not what I think it should be, and the steering seems to be vague as well. Based on my experiences, I would not recommend these tires to those that enjoy spirited driving and own smaller/lighter high horsepower cars."

"we have these tires on a 1996 maxima... they seem to be pretty good though a little noisy. since they don't seem to be too bad for the maxima, i decided to buy them for our 1999 mercedes... its a very good thing that they have a 30 day return policy, i was not happy at all with them ... vibration and road noise way too irritating!!!!"

"Escort GT - 205 60 15 - In addition to my last review, I have had three tires break sidewall belts, they float all over in wet weather, and are totally unpredictable in slide recovery. They remind me of driving on pea-gravel in all conditions. At corner entry they understeer, at the apex they wallow, and on exit they wash back and forth from understeer to oversteer like a set of bad shocks. This car is tight and very responsive to steering input with a good set of tires. The Toyo Proxes TPT is like trying to herd Cats. "

"2002 S10 X-Cab V6 - 235/60/16 - Excellent tire when I first got em. At 20,000 they lost some wet performance, only on acceleration, still great in the corners, don't belive the "all-season", suck in snow/ice. Show little wear and I am very hard on them. Edge's holding up great from hard cornering. Truck is slightly modified, suspension, hp, ect. Overall, great tire for the money.(keep out of the snow/ice) Go with Blizzaks by Brigdestone for winter traction, can't be beat."

"99 saturn sl1 - 195-60r15 - Had these for 44,000 miles. About 3/32 left on the tread. My car isn't fast, but I corner hard and they wore evenly. Earlier review, I stated they are bad in the snow. Peroid. Wet traction is still very good at 3/32, dry is great for a higher mileage tire. Getting a little noisy now, but not too bad. "

"2003 Subaru Forester - 215/60R16 - Feels like I am driving on a squirrel! The handling on my Subaru went from excellent to poor as soon as I replaced my balding Yokohama Geolander G900s with these tires from Toyo. Not recommended."

"Merc Sable LS - 215-60R15 - I am about to purchase my second set of Proxes TPTs for this car. Also have them on my wifes Acura Legend. I have almost 60k miles on mine and have been very happy. The car still handles well (handled great when they were new). Good tread where, great tires for the price"

"Ford Escort Gt - 205 60 15 - I have removed the nightmare toyos and installed Michelin piolt xgt v4s. The car now drives straight and goes where I point it, and even got quieter. The Toyo Proxes TPTs were like fighting a monkey for the steering wheel. I steer one way, they go the other. When I got rid of them It brought tears to my eyes, the new Michelins are so good. I can now generate goose bumps in corners again!"

"'04 Camry LE - 205/65/15 - WOW!!!! I just bought my Camry used w/ 9,600 miles on it. The Goodyear Integrity tires that were on the car sucked! They had little grip to the road(rubber in 3 gears), and just seemed to bog any performance out of this car. I put on the TPT's as a replacement. Holy S**t! These grip to the road like glue. They also brought my mileage from 23 mpg's to 32 mpg's. These tires will pay for themselves by Thanksgiving! And I will being giving thanks for the best tires I have ever owned!!! Just don't drive these in New England snow. "
