toyo proxy tq good on the street w/ 500hp?
I need a 315/30/18 or 315/35/18 on the rear of my ws6. Its a street only car.
around 500hp to the tire. I need to hook and book.... what tire is the truth?
toyo tq are cheap, I just cannot find any real feed back on them...
If I need to go mt, i will. some real advise would be great.

r888s are a good tire. more of a road course tire, but its rally sticky. the nitto invos arent bad, dont have any personal experience with them, but they are a street tire for what its worth. maybe try r888s, nt05rs or the toyo tq.

Look my name up I broke down the tires is thread like this. Great street tire better then nittos in every field and better then the Mickey Thompson in every field but hooking. Went from a 1.71 60ft which was the best with toyo to a 1.65 all day with my m/t. Worst 60ft with the Mickey was a 1.67. Hope that helps.

Your not going to hook on the street period. My car will spin a true slick on the street. I'm running Nittos NT-05 R's and they spin unless I walk it out.

My r888's are a daily driver. NOw that I have 18,000 miles on them I can spin at will & are slippery in the rain. However, for the first 15,000 ( how can you ask for more with his type tire) they hooked like they had talons and handled well.
I'm looking for a new set as we speak & wouldn't change a thing.
It doesn't hurt that they look wicked also.

Im running the toyo proxes tq on my camaro with over 500 to the wheels and so far they keep me going straight. i havent had them for long and havent had them out in any wet weather but for dry streets they are a good tire so far. my car isnt a dd but when is gets driven i drive the **** out of it and they havent put me in the ditch yet.
