Toyo Truck Tire Review
Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tires deserve a five start rating simply because their pros far outweigh their cons, and they continue to impress me as great all weather tires. On a scale of 1 to 5, I would say that the Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tires deserve a 4 in terms of handling, with a 5 for overall score. These tires have a great handling, and are a very good value for the price that is asked for them. These tires are quiet, though it has been mentioned that they may become noisier with age. These tires provide enough traction to be good all-weather tires, especially when it comes to rain as their traction keeps them from slipping or hydroplaning at all.

In order to get the most out of the Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tire, you must have perfect balance and alignment. Although these tires are great for all weather, they do seem to have trouble managing heavy winter driving, and may experience more wear and tear during these months. However, the Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tire is still a great tire for the price point. As long as you understand that they do not make the greatest snow or ice tires, and you realize that they are not intended to be ultra high in performance, then these tires should be just fine for a multitude of uses.
After around 1,000 miles on my Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tires, I am still having difficult finding flaws. I continue to be quite pleased with the performance that my tires are affording me. The price can be a little high depending on where you purchase them from, but I have found that it is quite worth it for the extra cash to have my truck wearing tires that work as well as these. The extra width in these tires creates extra traction, that makes these tires handle especially well in tight turns and corners, and in wet, rainy situations. I knew these tires were meant to be rain-friendly, but I had no idea how much so until my first rainstorm. My truck clung to the road better than I knew it could, and I really enjoyed the ride. Anyone who has to deal with a lot of rain or wetness can gain a lot by installing the Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tires on their truck.
If you are looking for all-season radial tires for occasional winter driving, but do most of your driving on pavement that is dry, and are willing to spend a little more than the average for tires, then the Toyo Proxes FZ4 Passenger/Performance Tire is probably the right tire for you and your truck! These tires are so quiet, you'll forget you even have them on!
