The next summer season will start very soon, which means that it is time to re-shoe cars. Toyo has prepared an updated lineup of its summer tires for the new season, the main representatives of which we want to talk about in this review.
Let's start with a novelty, albeit a relative one. Toyo will offer updated tires to Russian motorists in the beginning of the summer season Toyo NanoEnergy 3, which received an improved rubber compound with the addition of a new polymer, which made it possible to significantly increase the grip characteristics of tires on a wet track.
The redesigned tread shape of Toyo NanoEnergy 3 tires provides them with greater aerodynamics, which means that the novelty contributes to fuel economy. The drainage system has also undergone some modifications. In particular, the revised shape of the longitudinal channels now promotes more efficient water drainage from the contact patch, which, together with the updated rubber compound, provides improved wet braking performance, making Toyo NanoEnergy 3 tires one of the safest in its segment. The Toyo NanoEnergy 3 tires are focused on compact cars and are presented in a wide range of sizes for 13 - 14-inch rims.
Tires are the flagship model for passenger cars. Toyo Proxes CF2showing good sales figures and success in various tests over the past several seasons.
As part of the latest update, Toyo Proxes CF2 tires also received an improved rubber compound with polymer additives that give the rubber the elasticity and wear resistance required by modern standards. But the main changes have occurred in the tire tread, the revised shape of which provides a more even distribution of the load over the entire contact patch, thanks to which the Toyo Proxes CF2 tires demonstrate excellent handling and effective braking. In addition, the drainage system has undergone modernization, which now provides 15% improved drainage from the contact patch zone. Toyo Proxes CF2 tires are available in nearly 40 sizes for rims ranging from 13 to 17 inches.
For sports car owners and just connoisseurs of a sporty driving style, Toyo recommends paying attention to tires Toyo Proxes T1 Sportdesigned for high-speed driving on asphalt roads.
This rubber has an asymmetric tread with five ribs, providing the largest possible contact patch area, confident directional stability and high grip characteristics from the very first seconds of movement. The reinforced shoulders of the Toyo Proxes T1 Sport resist deformation during high-speed cornering, while also contributing to effective braking on both dry and wet trails. The drainage system of the Toyo Proxes T1 Sport tires, in turn, is designed to quickly drain water from the contact patch, which allows you to maintain stability when driving at high speeds on wet asphalt.
We will finish the review of the flagships of the Toyo tire line with rubber for crossovers, pickups and all-wheel drive station wagons. It's about the model Toyo Proxes S / Twith a multi-layer structure with harder inner layers and a "soft" upper, allowing these tires to optimally combine the qualities of off-road and asphalt rubber.
Toyo Proxes S / T tire tread features a directional pattern with a complex petal V-profile, intersecting block lines and large drainage channels capable of self-cleaning from sand and dirt. In addition, Toyo Proxes S / T tires received reinforced shoulder zones with offset blocks from each other, the outer edges of which act as side lugs, and the grooves applied to them help to provide reliable braking and the required amount of cling surfaces when cornering. In general, Toyo Proxes S / T tires are quite balanced, they have been on the market for several seasons and have repeatedly confirmed their high class, helping numerous teams to take high places in various rally races. Toyo Proxes S / T tires are available in a wide variety of sizes for 16 "- 23" rims.
