345/25/20 Toyo Proxes T1R Tires??
 

Anybody running these or know somebody that is/has?? I'm wondering how they will stick with 640whp... Any help is appreciated!

Matt

I have 630 rwhp and same tires/same size running great, even in cold weather here!! Recommend!!

Thanks man, how much did you pay for them if you don't mind me asking? I found a brand new set of 2 on eBay at a price that sounds too good to be true...

T1R Proxes are discontinued...if you find them anywhere you better check date codes..

Sucks they are discontinued :banghead: They were they best tires I've had on my Vette.

Bought mine from Camskill, England.

Check www.camskill.co.uk

Discontinued? F**K if so, only tire in this size in Europe I found. Obviously I'm driving without tires soon..

So far seems to be on Toyo web site..

Yeah the ones I just purchased are dated 2009 but have been kept in a climate controlled warehouse and show no signs of aging... My brother owns a shop in LA and said it shouldn't be a problem as long as they weren't exposed to weather...

yep...sorry to say...

they have a new R1R out that is supposed to replace it but I don't know about sizing etc...we ended up putting BFG KDWs on her car instead which is fine as they have been fantastic on my 99.

I know all about tire discontinuation disappointment as I am dealing with that now on my 07Z06...I have the General UHP's and they are no more...looks like I am going with Nittos as I refuse to drop the kinda coin Michelin wants for basically the same tire life

yeah most manufacturers say 6 years from date of production....of course everything is subjective.:cheers:

At 670$ shipped for 2.... It's a pretty hard bargain to pass up!

:yesnod:

Mine dated 2009 also, purchased them last autumn. Works well, no any issue.

Big question, does anyone knows if someone has still in stock in States? I'll take immediately pair or two..

Problem is can't take Nittos because stupid EU area laws. Some certificate lacking and customs don't let them out.

Camskill has sold them out..

I can tell you I made 3 attempts to buy them and even though people initially said they had them they did not...you are truly out of luck from dealers...private party is probably your only hope.

as I said the new Toyo R1R's are the replacement

Yes but R1R estimated availability still unknown?? I know I need new rears after 1000 miles :D

Noticed, Pirelli makes also in 345/25 R20..

Damn, R888 not available in right sizes..

pretty sure Tire Rack says they have them..there was a thread last week

That's the ones I just ordered... I like the tread pattern better than the Invo's I have now...

:iagree: running them now and loving them. Very sticky for a street tire, much better than the invos.

I have my t1r for about 500 miles and I can say that they are a world better then the invo I replaced them with.

The Toyo Proxes T1R's have NOT been discontinued in 345/25-20.

We have them, $458.50 Free S&H withing the lower 48 states.

These are NEW tires, not old inventory that was bought up cheap!!

I believe you guys built this car?? My brother bought it a couple months ago down around Ft Lauderdale...

Yes, we built the body kit, but the nose isn't ours, or the rear diffuser...

:cheers:

with 670 RWHP I would recommend DR

:iagree:

640rwhp... but yeah I would love to! But I want to keep the looks of my car now and I don't know of any DR's that fit a 20x13" rim??

BTW noticed Hankook make this size also, I'm not sure if it's available in States..?? Anyone any experience??

Tuomas,

I'm not aware of a 345/25-20 Hankook... which model?

:cheers:

Hankook Ventus S1 EVO K107 345/25R20 XL

They do not have a delivery date yet when i checked,have you seen them in stock somwhere?

Nope, it's out of stock in Europe, bad situation at this moment.. As well Toyo and Pirelli is no stock all over in Europe..

The toyos will not be produced here anymore,got my fronts from camskill and the rears from Jason...
Maybe we shoud buy a container from US?

I know by now that my rears not last for long...(when car is on street again)
How much are your taxes and fees? here its about the double $:(

I took two pirelli sets from Tirerack, they still have old 2008 production. Maybe they last this summer.. :lol:

I'm using air freight with all parts from States, much easier, little more expensive.. I'm not the most patience guy for waiting :lol:

We are an authorized TOYO dealer.

They have plenty in stock.

They are NOT discontinued in the USA.

:cheers:

Ok what are you paying for them when they are at home?

This way Toyos ends soon ;)
