Had toyos on my 96 328is. In my opinion they are garbage. Besides they are discontinued so if you can find them don't buy. Traction was so little in the rear of my car with 225/45/17 could smoke the tires all day in first gear, not to mention the out of round wobble after half tread life. Hope this helps your decision.

Hello!

I have a 330 Ci with SP (F225/45/ZR17 - R245/40/ZR17). I am still comparing tires and just curious how these brands hold against each other. I checked Tirerack site for the Bridgestone PP SO-2 and Michelin Pilot Sport. I am leaning towards the Bridgestone as of now. But how do they compare agaist Toyo Proxies T1-S in performance (dry/wet), tread wear, etc. My local tire dealer (Les Schwab) says that those are best in the world, but obviously he's biased. I wonder if anyone can give me an unbiased opinion about the Toyos?

Thanks in advance!
