Toyo Proxes 4 OR Goodyear Eagle F1 A/S
 

So I'm looking to replace my UHP A/S Falken Ziex 512s on my summer/warm weather setup, and have narrowed it down to these 2 tires... but I'm torn.

FWIW, I can get the Toyos for about ~$20 less per tire, but I've read such great reviews on the Eagles that I'm really "intrigued". Tread life appears to be substantially better than the Toyos, and the Eagles had the best performance results out of the 4 UHP tires tested on Tire Rack (which inlcluded Pirelli P-Zero Neros, Bridgestone Pole Positions, and Michelin Pilot Sports)... particularly in wet slalom.

Why not the Falken 452's? I use the 512's and love them, and when they are done, i was looking at getting the 452's, which are even more sticky and handle better.

toyos...just got em, love em

ive got the toyo proxes 4. They are great tires for dry driving conditions, but when it rains, i hydroplane all over the place (could be because my car is so low). The performance of these tires is unmatched, and once you get them warmed up, they are very sticky. The only tire id consider other than the proxes are the Nitto nt01's.

ive had no problems with mine..and its rained quite a bit since i got them

I tend to run my "summer wheels" from April until the end of November... I'm just worried that if I run a true summer tire in cooler/colder weather, it won't function very well b/c of the compound. I see you're in Canada... any problems running the 452?

Just had a little snow and colder weather, and had no problems at all, just gotta be a little more carefull. If there was alot of snow, i wouldn't be driving with them (i would switch to my Mazda 6 GT with all seasons on still ) .

Toyo's just got mine too also love them .

^^^Which tire, lol? :tomato:

I won't be using the tires in any snow since I have OEM TLs w/ Michelin Alpins for the white stuff... but I may still have my "summer" shoes on in some relatively colder weather (30's) in the early spring or late fall.

Btw... I used to have a 6 too --- really liked the car although it felt a tad nose heavy. The brake feel and force were so much better than my TSX and Accord V6 though...
