Is Toyo worth it?

[blakmetal.honda]

I was looking around, and noticed that Toyo Proxes 4's are only around $100 per tire (for 15s). Are they worth that much, or is there something else that is slightly less money that is almost as good?

Depends what you want. Their are advantages and disadvantages based on those claims. I personally, think Toyo makes superb all around tires. They may not be the best in any one area, but they are decently well rounded.

i read that BFG g-force sports are awesome for the price and they are only $81 shipped from tires.com

I run toyo proxes 4 good all season tire. Drive it in the snow, dry, and wet and works really well. Also as mentioned depends on what your looking for. It handles decent so far on my car so no complaints. But 100 per tire seems high.

[blakmetal.honda]

Well, what I'm looking for is a tire that performs well, but I don't want one that wears too fast. My cb7 is a weekend warrior, I'm not a big street racer or anything, but I do hit the track once in a while. And I don't drift (except for snow drifting ), so my driving style shouldn't be too much of a problem. Do you think that the Proxes 4's would be a wise choice given these circumstances?

Oh and I only saw the price for them at one place, so I could most likely find them for cheaper.

It all depends on the money you have. if you are doing good financially you would more than likely get the tire that cost and performs the most, money is a major issue, most if not all of your decisions are based on that

Proxes 4 are on par with the Falken Ziex 512, Hankook Ventus, and one of the mid-range Kumho Ecsta modes. MOST tires in the same price range have similar attributes. If you don't have specific needs, chances are any of them will be good enough for you. Toyo is decent. I always thought they were a bit overpriced, but some people swear by them. I'm a Falken man myself

Stay away from the cheapest of the cheap, no matter how good the brand is. Stay away from the REALLY cheap crap, like Nankang and Wanli.

Agree ... I have the hankooks k104s in 18" and they perform great in the dry and wet, and they are comparably priced.

id suggest the gforce sports as well.
320 treadwear, very sticky on dry pavement and hot days.
