Thumbs up Toyo Proxes T1R or something else: What's Your Preference..

I want to have a place for everyone to Post their preference of street tires. There is a wide range of opinions so it will be cool to see which choice is the most common. Put down the brand and size you're running..

so far my DW's are really quiet for road noise despite being 20"s compared to my previous 18"s.

When you hit a fairly good bump, they are louder, but for regular road noise quiter if not just as quite as the Advan Sports (which were a ton quiter than the OEM 19"s rubber)

I've the the DW's as well, in 275/35R18 + 295/35R18. They've been great so far, and they're a good bit cheaper than some of the other competitive street tires.
