Toyo Tires Proxes Sport Ultra High Performance Summer Tire

The Toyo Proxes Sport 2 is an ultra high performance (UHP) summer tire for sports cars, performance sedans and luxury vehicles. It is built for drivers who want precise handling and strong wet and dry grip. This max-performance summer tire is for warm-weather driving. Toyo says it improves on the original Proxes Sport with better cornering stability and shorter stopping distances.

Key Features:

• Asymmetric tread design: A flexible inboard compound adds grip on wet and dry roads. A more rigid outboard compound improves cornering stability.
• Dual silica compounds: These help the tire stay responsive and keep traction on wet pavement.
• Dynamic Taper Design: This design keeps block stiffness high and spreads contact pressure evenly. The result is better grip, braking and acceleration.
• Wet-weather traction: Wide circumferential grooves and open shoulders move water out of the footprint to resist hydroplaning.
• Performance casing: A rayon casing improves handling response. Two steel belts are reinforced by a 2-ply nylon cap for high-speed stability and durability.
• Shorter stopping distances: Toyo reports stopping distances about 10% shorter on dry pavement and 15% shorter on wet pavement than the Proxes Sport it replaces.
• Treadwear warranty: Toyo backs the line with a 25,000-mile treadwear warranty.

Like all UHP summer tires, the Proxes Sport 2 is designed for warm dry and wet conditions. It is not intended for snow, ice or near-freezing temperatures. Drivers who see cold weather should switch to dedicated winter tires. The Proxes Sport 2 gives enthusiast drivers sharp steering response, stable high-speed cornering and confident braking.
