Help With Tires
WHAT DO YOU GUYS KNOW ABOUT TOYO's PROXES T1-S's? THE SALESMAN AT ALLEN TIRES SAID THEY WERE THE BEST. THE TREAD LOOKS A LITTLE HARSH COMPARED TO THE BFG's AND GOODYEARS. ALL I KNOW IS THAT THEY ARE MADE IN JAPAN. ALSO WILL 18" 315's FIT WITH NO RUBBING ON THE REAR IF I HAVE MY CAR LOWERED 1.5" IN THE REAR? THANKS.

Toyo Proxies are pretty good tires but you pay for the name instead of performance. The type of tire you purchase is the type of weather and driving style you like. I dont see where you are from but if you drive your car year round you might want to look into some all season performance tires such as pirelli pzero nero, michelon pilots, kumho, ect and mabye if you are only driving in the summer perhaps look into BFG g-force, nitto 555/r, again it all depends on what you drive in and what you are looking to pay. You could check out www.tirerack.com to get some reviews and see whats available in your size and driving conditions.
