Default Thoughts on TOYO PROXES 275/60R17 tires

I need some new tires soon, I have Fusion 265/70 - 17's now and I'm looking at these Toyos

-TOYO PROXES STII 275/60R17 PROXES STII 110V-

I know I'm going down in height 265/70 vs. 275/60 but I wanted a WIDER tire look on the stock 17" rims (all I can afford right now). The stock tires were a 245/70-17

Anyone got these tires and what do they think of them? Treadepot has them for only $108.00 ea.

I am running 275/55/17 and they are awesome on the pavement and when cornering. I also live in a rural area where i have about 4 miles of unpaved roads and it also responds well to the dirt roads. I have not used them much in the rain but they were slicing through the water much better than my old falken ziex1 285/60/17 tires.

I am not really good at giving detailed reviews but i am really happy with them.

Right now we also have a $25 off special on a set of 4 if you decide to go with those.

I had Toyo Proxes on my 01 Lightning. They were great tires. Good wet and dry performance along with good tread wear.
