I've had various Toyo's on various cars and have always been impressed. Grip is excellent both wet and dry, and handling is always safe. Wet braking is very good, which is important to me as I drive on twisty B roads, frequently.
Wear is only really average, but then given the levels of wet grip I suspect they are a soft-ish compound. saying that these tyres are reasonably priced, so its not a problem at all.
Another good point is I've never had any problems with balancing or casing distortion/failure. So I'd happily recommend these tyres to anyone.

Amazing winter tire! Grips perfectly on ice, snow, deep snow, and....vrey deep snow! the only time my car stuck was when i pushed the so hard in such deep snow that my front tires were suspended in the air because was so much snow under the car!!!

The best tire I ever had for wet road!!! It almost grips better on wet than on dry! I was driving at 150 Km/h on very heavy rain and the road had 1-2 cm of water an no aquaplaning at all. They front tires have some wear, but is because of the bad geometry of the vehicle. Not noisy and very good value for money. Had Michelin and Dunlop before, but didn't worth the money. A little disapointed from the feedback cause it turns the steering wheel at every bump or road abnormality, but it is not very disturbing.

Amazing grip on wet road at high speeds. Doing 140 Km/h on heavy rain conditions without any problem! Wet breaking very good as well. Good dry road driving as well.

very good tyres for the price, being part of continental group. however the side wall feel a little bit weak when being pushed to the limit. main issue which uniroyal address would be with the side wall apart from that it is most defiantly the best tyre for this country as the grip in the rain is amazing.

Was disappointed with wear rate,(down to 1mm @ 15K), however I have since had Fulda's that lasted half that! so I may go back to these again better ride than the fulda's and grip in the dry/ wet, poor in the snow but they are summer tyres after all

Front's down to 2.5mm in 6K!!, rear's still have 5mm may be down to car/driving/roads than tyres, however I managed 15k out of a set of Khumo KU31's and 10k on a set of cheap wanli's. grip is good dry or wet but average in the snow ( again more the fault of 17" wheels and sport suspension than the tyres) So what next do I go for premium tyres and hope for better wear or just stick some cheap Chinese one's on, and change at 10k?

A garbage tyre ! With this tyres I've bayed the car ; 5 wet road braking ABS intervening 3 and I went with them until I had a little accident - a small scratch on the left wing due to that I could not stop in time, came ABS and was to go in the trench. Then I decided and I changed tires with Continental Sport Contact 2 -> a huge difference in braking and handling. Amazing grip on wet and dry conditions; I can say that now the car runs on railways.
I will never buy this tire (Fulda Cart Progresso) and don't advise anyone to bayed if you care about their cars and their safety especially !!!
