The Toyo Proxes Sport 2 is an ultra-high performance summer tire engineered for sports cars, luxury vehicles, and high-performance sedans that demand exceptional dry and wet traction with precise handling. This tire combines advanced technology with an aggressive asymmetric tread design to deliver an exhilarating driving experience on twisty roads and spirited drives.

Advanced Dual-Compound Technology:

• Two high-grip summer compounds molded into a unified asymmetric tread design
• Flexible inboard compound maximizes adhesion to the road surface in wet and dry conditions
• Rigid outboard compound provides stable, confidence-inspiring dry handling and cornering grip
• Dynamic Taper Design reduces block edge deformation for better road contact and increased block stiffness

Superior Wet Weather Performance:

• Deep circumferential grooves and open shoulders efficiently evacuate water from the footprint
• Enhanced hydroplaning resistance for safer wet weather driving
• Inner compound flexibility increases conformity to the road for improved wet traction

Engineered Construction:

• Rayon casing construction enhances handling response and feedback
• Two wide steel belts support the tread for durability
• 2-ply nylon cap reinforcement provides high-speed stability
• Optimized casing design balances pressure distribution under load for improved braking, acceleration, and more even wear

Maximum inflation pressure is 50 PSI. The tire measures 25.0 inches in overall diameter with an 8.9-inch section width and mounts on 7.0-8.5 inch wide rims (7.5-inch measuring rim width recommended).

Important Note: As an ultra-high performance summer tire, the Proxes Sport 2 is designed to excel in warm, dry, and wet conditions. It is not intended for use in near- or below-freezing temperatures, through snow, or on ice. Tires exposed to temperatures below 20°F must be allowed to gradually return to at least 40°F for 24 hours before use to prevent compound cracking.
