Default toyo Proxes T1R™ on Porsche

Does anyone know if these tires are good tires.

well - I have them on my Audi A6 4.2l sport, and I like them. They seems to stick nice, are quiet, and wear decent. I am sure they are not up to snuff vs. Michelin Pilots etc, but they do cost a bit less. They are on my daily driver (100 miles a day), so I needed something which wouldn't be breaking the bank either.

Granted it isnt a Porsche, but I use them on my 535whp E36 M3. They offer great grip and quite good wet weather traction.

I would recommend them.

I use them on my TT , not a bad tire, i prefer the PS-2, but cost vs cost, they are a great value.

I hated them on my 996TT with Champion 19" wheels, sidewall is way too thin/soft and flex a lot!

Great for traction but serious stability issues under high speed (over 120mph) braking and stability issues over 190mph (car tends to walk on uneven surface)...
