Proxes Sport XL

<p>Noisy. Bad feelings. These tires have poor aquaplaning resistance and their geometry is compromised.</p>

Bought a TTRS with these tires on and I wasnt impressed. Not sure why would anyone put tires like these on a high performance car. Its fine in the drive and warm, but when it rains the car suddenly snaps and end up going sideways around the roundabout and traction control lights up even in 3rd gear. Taking these off and replacing them with Michelin PS this week

All is well until it rains and then I loose the back end of my Honda S2000 on a roundabout at 25mph. I wasn't even pushing it and it sacred me to death. It then did it again in the same trip. Not heavy rain. I've immediately replaced them for a much better rated tyre.

Put these on to replace the toyo r888rs I had on, with 440bhp and limited spirited driving, they lasted 6000kms. Have travelled 5000kms on these and wow, out perform the r888rs by a country mile and with a ton of tread left. Treadwear is actually very surprising to say the least. Definitely a quality budget performance tyre option.

First off, ignore the optimistic reviews on here. They are obvious and sound like Yanks on crack with their excess positivity. Proxes are fine for the money, but pretty hopeless in some situations such as the wet, or over a cattle grid. Nearly lost control on hitting a cattle grid recently at relatively slow speed. I've had Proxes twice and wasn't all that impressed on either occasion in the wet.
