Default Tread pics of TOYO Proxes STII

My new tires just got delivered and the tread pattern on these tires are kinda interesting... Most tires i have seen have the tread design cut perpendicular to the tire, but these are cut at an angle... Hopefully they should be mounted on Saturday...

Same here, exactly....although I found a complete set of Hankook ST RH06's for 509.60 mounted and balanced.

Yep i had General UHP's on my 16's, i really liked them, hooked great at the track, but after a few burnouts at the track small chunks started coming out of the tread... Kinda hard to explain....


I mainly switched to try something different...
