Toyo Proxes 4 Vs Falken 452 vs General Gabbers

**05_BLKMAG_20** · 05-13-2009, 02:29 AM

I am very close to pulling the trigger on one of the choice above. I was wanting to get everyone's quick opinion on which one I should go with. I think i might be leaning toward the proxes 4 but I have heard they are noisy. (vs Falken)

Please let me know what you think is the best tire. SIze 255/45/20

I have 245/45/zr20 on front and 275/40/zr20 Toyo Proxes 4's on my charger and love them, don't find them noisey at all, and they just want to grip and shoot the car.....No Complaints at all

I just had a set of Proxi 4's put on (255/45-20's). Replaced GY RSA's (tread separation). Very quiet, smooth and a vast improvement in handling. It's like a different car.

I researched the same tires as you have, chose the Toyos and have no regrets at all.

No experience with the others but love my Toyos

I'm a big fan of Vredesteins but would recommend the Toyos. The have a very nice looking sidewall that fills up the fenderwell unlike the stock Goodyears.

I notice that you also include the Grabbers. I have the 255/55/18" Grabbers, they are outstanding tires, stick like glue, especially in the wet. My only complaint , they are a mite loud. Hard to beat for the price. I get lots of comments that they look expensive.

Well I had Toyo and I just put on the 452. 1st impression of the 452 is that they are a softer ride then the Toyo, The Toyo sidewall looks better, both grip the road good even though with the 452 I feel like the car want to move more on a turn but it doesn't ( don't know how to explain it), It hasn't rained down here so I don't know how the Falken runs on the wet road,but all and all so far I like the tires.

Same here and on my second set in 90k miles. There is a "store" on EBay that has them for $645 shipped.

I have had the toyos for about 4 months now and love them. They grip and launch the car better than my old f1's. My buddy yesterday told me I need some sh1tt1er tires so I can get squirrlier. These things just grip.

if you're looking for a great grip go with the toyo's. Have you looked into michelin?

**smoove7410** · 05-14-2009, 07:06 PM

I have Toyo Proxy 4 in 255/35/22. They grip well, but are loud. I only had one other choice, Nitto, in this size.

I have had the General Grabber UHP's (255/55-18's) on for about 3000 miles and really like them so far. They look sweet and are very sticky. Road noise isn't too bad, but don't know what will happen as I get more miles on them. They definitely are quieter than any snows I have run...

They are also awesome in heavy rain and deep puddles! Hardly any pull with the puddles and don't even really notice the "river ruts" on the roads while driving.

Another vote for grabbers here. I really like them, and they have a great price/performance ratio.

Although for the same money you can get Vreds in 255/55/18 from Moe's for just a little more than the grabbers. I think someone paid ~$650 for a set delivered.
