pretty good price....do you mind sharing with the others? I was thinking of getting those tires as well for my rims but with the Falken cause of the treadwear and lip protection. Nice tires though
i just got the toyo proxes 4's also. i've been in this scene for a long time now and this is the best tire i have ever used. i'm using a 215/40-18 and they have the rim protection as well as a 300 treadwear rating. i highly recommend them.

The Falken Ziex do...they have a lip protection. I'll post a pic later.

this is great news cause i have 25/40/17 toyo proxes 4 and i was really worried if they would do good in the rain but i havent drivin with them yet
some people said it handles like twice as good in the rain as the stock do
WOOHOO im happy now that i know these tires are nice ... especially since someplaces actually had them listed for 150-170 a piece

NO. FZ4 and 4 is totally different.
Proxes 4 is Ultra-High Performance All-Season tire. Proxes 4 is seamless also and the overall structural integrity is better than FZ4 because of this.
Proxes FZ4 is only High Performance All-Season tire. You can see the joint of the rubber.
Most, it not all, tires have the so called rim protector.
Proxes 4 handles well better in the rain since it has a Silica compound.

Parada Spec-2s have a silica based compound too.. See many tires, they seem to be the best for the money. But I have yet to try the 4s. Im on my second set of Parada-spec 2s now... And I have BF Goodrich drag radials. I'll look into the 4s for future ref... I've been hearing about them

I have Toyo Proxes 4 in 215/35/19 and they are awesome. They ride quiet and stick well if I have to make a quick turn. I had some hankook Ventus tires on my 17s in 205/40/17 and those were **** compared to the Toyos.... and they were only for 17s. I have a better ride with my 19s then I did with my 17s.

Toyo Proxes 4 are my final choice after much research!
