My Toyo Proxes R1R’s. Only 200TW I’ve ever had, and I got them for an insanely great deal. Once I use them up I’ll eventually upgrade to better tires, but they’re simply my favorite because they’re the one’s I’ve got! Work well for my car and that’s all I can say.
Look at Toyo
I run 275/65r18 Toyo R/T just fine with no rubbing unless it’s at a awkward sharp turn on a steep hill
So I upgraded to new wheels and tires. I had the stock wheels and some el cheapo Chinese HiFly tires. Now I've got JR11 15 inch wheels and Toyo Proxes TR1 205/50. The car sticks to the road and is much quieter. I've much more confidence in the car and it's driving behavior is awesome right now.
If I could find these tires again id buy them, i have them on a 09 impala and used them for more than two years and had better than normal wear, my summer tires last half these winter tires.
Late last year Toyo had a special running at my local Firestone store. My company told me how much I could spend. With the special I could afford tires I wouldn't have even looked at before. I tell you what. My little CX5 rode as good if not better than my Large Acura MDX. It's so smooth and quiet it threw me off the first long trip I took. I've had them for 5 months/25k miles and they feel as good now as they did when I bought them.
For good budget tires that last over 2 years and have ok performance for the weekend enthusiasts… Toyo Extenza HP are the way to go…. Had mine For 2 years and still have meat…and much quieter than the Nexen….
I agree with the Crossclimate II review. Had them for 2 winters now, and they grip just as good as the Toyo observe GSI5 winters I had, while being quieter and smoother.
Have had Falkens in the past, just didn’t last as long as I hoped and basically felt cheap. Nittos also wore prematurely IMO so weren’t worth the premium. The Proxes wear well (evenly) and can handle weather.
Anecdotal, but I bought a 2022 CX5 earlier this year and it came with Toyo tires on it. My rear driver side tire literally BLEW UP while I was driving 75mph to work at 4 in the morning. It was so bad that there was nothing left of the tire except a couple inches of the side wall around the wheel. I had 8200 miles on the tires.
