    Toyo Proxes ST II - 255/55/18

    I finally decided to go with these tires and ordered them 2 weeks ago. Went to have them installed today. I love the 1" wider look and the design. Here is a link to more info on the tires: http://www.toyo.com/docs/tires/tires...roxes%20ST%20I The installer looked at the new size and questioned if they would rub or not. I assured him they would not and when he was finished he was impressed they did not rub. Sorry for the sub-par pics, used a different camera this time. That and it was late in the day and the sun was going down.

    Nothing like a nice set of 255x55x18 tires.

    Yes, they came mostly on the 300's. This was a corporate vehicle when I purchased it. I suppose those guys can get it set up any way they want. I have not seen another Magnum in person with them, but I've seen a couple on the site here.

    I would have to say very well. I do have an AWD though and that helps a lot. Our roads have been snow packed for awhile here and the anti-lock brakes do kick in a bit when I come up on a stop light a little to fast. I would buy them again.

    I also have the Toyo's. Haven't had any snow to speak of yet, but otherwise they are great. No additional noise levels that I can pick up on.
