Toyo Proxes T1 Sport

[M-A8]

Hi
Anyone having them on at the minute or had fitted in the past??

I'm buying a new set of tyres next week and almost every time I change the tyres I go for something different, but not budget of course.

I'm always keen on changes and not always I take all the reviews seriously, especially reviews after driving 3miles or from users of much smaller cars because then this info is less relevant to me or to you, some tyre might be fine for 1.4 hatch but not so much for almost 2 ton A8

This year I'm keen on Toyo's because:
one, apparently from this or last year Toyo Proxes's are Audi's OEM equipment (A0 version on Audi S6 and Audi RS 5)
two, the build of the tyre is quiet interesting especially wider profile which will suite me even better with 255s on 9'' rim.
three, dual compound, harder on the inside for better steering and softer compound on the outside for better cornering.
four, wide water channels like most of the better competitors.
five, well priced
six, not so bad reputation.

Video here, firs 2min or so absolute b@l@ks, then the construction is explained in detail (dual compound etc)
