245/50 16 Tyre Review Highlights

Federal SS595 SUPER STEEL rated 86% while driving a Pontiac trans am ws6
Driving on a combination of roads for 8000 spirited miles
i had these on my iroc z and absolutely did things that are unbelievable with them! from autocross to drag racing! YOU HAVE TO GET THESE TIRES WARM!!!!!!! once they warm up and heat cycled properly they will perform better than most tires out there. current car is a 478 rear wheel horse trans am and they are still an absolute dream. out of every tire ive ran these are the best looking and really give a wide footprint! dont recommend with snow. (laguna seca loved them)

this tires are good in dry conditions,some good in wet road, to bad for litle snow, not traction in snow . make some noise.so not recomended to buy if you go to drive in heavy rain or snow. never buy again,

Toyo Proxes CF1 rated 52% while driving a Mazda MX5
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 average miles
Very disappointed with these. Bought these in stages to replace the factory fit Yokohamas. Fine when the Toyo's were on the rear only but immediately i changed the fronts from the Yokohamas to these Toyos the car felt unbalanced and like the front was skittering across the road. Repeated checks on the tyres, suspension, steering geometry and tracking revealed no issues. Finally relieved to have worn them down enough to justify changing them I now have Goodyear Effective Performance on all 4 wheels and my car is finally balanced again. I won't buy Toyos again.
