The Toyo Proxes ST III 255/55R18 is an all-season tire, designed for performance-focused SUV, crossover, and pickup truck drivers who prioritize sporty handling and confident year-round traction in everyday driving. Its highly directional tread design and high-silica compound focus on combining aggressive styling with reliable performance in dry, wet, and light snow conditions.
The tire features arrowhead tapers in the center tread that increase block stiffness for improved straight-line tracking, while directional shoulder blocks enhance stability and braking performance. Lightning grooves help evacuate water for hydroplaning resistance, and an offset tread pattern minimizes pipe resonance for quieter operation. Driver feedback points to excellent dry performance and good wet traction, with solid comfort levels and reliable treadwear in daily use.
Compared to highway-focused tires, it adds performance-oriented handling characteristics while maintaining all-season versatility and reasonable comfort. Overall, it's a solid choice for SUVs, crossovers, and trucks used primarily for street driving with occasional spirited performance in various weather conditions.
