I have the proxes 4's


Also, i'd check the prices w/ those of the net. Local tire shops are usually a good rip off.

Ive got FZ4's on my 19"s and have been pretty happy. They came in a wheel/tire package, but living in MT I wanted something I could drive in the weather and they have worked great. Pretty quiet too.

I've had the worst luck with Toyo's. I wouldn't get them IMO, but it's up to you guys.

I don't know if it was just my luck or what, but I think it was 3 times.. 3 TIMES!! i've had flats in the front tires. It was either the right or left front! Maybe it was from where I was driving.. i don't know. But i've ALWAYS had bad luck with them! I've gotten new sets of Yokohama AVS ES100's and Pirellis with no problems at all. I actually recommend the AVS's.. they're pretty good tires.
