simple Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I found a set of Toyo Proxes TPT 225/55/17 for a good price. I've never really seen these before, has anyone got any experience with them? I've got a set of Potenza RE92 with 20,000 miles on them and they are at 4/32 with seriously worn outer edges. Horrible! Does anyone else believe that Subaru dealers know how much these tires suck and don't want to do anything about it. I got the run around at the dealership last night when I said that the tires are worn excessively for their age and mileage. I did get a possible offer of a free alignment for the outer edge issue. The car is one year old, but needs new tires! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car is one year old, but needs new tires! had them once. got stuck in the snow on a slow incline in my old mazda. got the proxes 4's. not one single issue ever. i believe they have soft sidewalls, but that's not the point. go for the 4's if you are going toyo. dry grip was def better than the nero m+s.

meliaant Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Have the TPT's on my 05 2.5i...live in New England, see some pretty decent snowfall each year, and they were o.k. They replaced the RE-92, and unfortunately, the RE-92 was better in the snow, but the TPT was far superior in everything else, especially rain, fwiw. If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid looking in a mirror, because I bet that will really throw you into a panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
