Owners of the Toyo Proxes CF1 generally praise dry grip, with wet grip, comfort and low noise also recurring strengths. Dry handling is more often liked than criticised, and most reviews are positive overall. Tread life is the main reservation, with short-life complaints from around one third of reviews and several actual replacement accounts, although other drivers report satisfactory mileage. A few longer-use reports describe reduced grip despite tread remaining, but there is no consistent point at which that happens. The sole repeat reviewer posted the same wear complaint twice, which adds no separate evidence of deterioration.

Put simply, I've had tires deliver equivalent grip and feel (I drive pretty hard) but last much longer. Everything else fine but disappointed with the wear.
Fairly good tire for the price and performs well in wet and dry conditions. However, not impressed with tire wear and tread has started to perish prematurely. I am currently running hankook kinergy tires and am very impressed all round.

Honda civic "S" Driven on rural roads,central belt scotland. Don't tend to hold back when possible.
Good tread pattern, commented on by several work colleagues, comfortable tire with good feed back and control in both wet and dry conditions.
So far a good well priced tire, but after 11K miles are the next best thing to slicks!! Very poor wearability, Maybe roads, maybe driving, but would have to think seriously before buying again
Which tires do you drive?
Researching the Toyo Proxes CF1? Rate the tires you actually drive - and help the next buyer choose.
These are reasonable low end Toyo's. The grip is good in the dry and acceptable in the wet. They are a little noisy but comfort is good. Quite soft so wear a little higher than some European tires. Good for smaller cars.
Great mid-range tire for small cars. The grip has improved massively on my car compared to the Pirelli i had before, especially in the wet. Had to test the tires in a couple of occasions in the wet and they kept the car tidy and always in control. In the dry they are also very good. Mine were made in Japan. My next buy would probably be these again or Yokos A539.
Put these on the front of my Golf because I was fed up with the previous (cheap) tires not gripping in cold or wet conditions. The Toyos were a big improvement and good value for money. I don't know how they are going to wear yet.
Had all 4 changed at the same time. Good price for a decent tire with good grip on the dry. On the wet when the tread is low you can feel the car on the edge. However, wear as poor. 10K miles and the front are gone. Rears are down to 5mm. Compared to my bro's golf running with Michelin, still have 5mm on the front after 9k miles!!!

Recommended to my Dad by our local tire depot, but turns out they are very long lasting (10k miles + on the fronts in a heavy Diesel MPV that isn't driven overly hard). I have put Toyos on the back of my Vectra, miles better looking tread pattern compared to Avons on front (and I've discovered the perils on a previous car of budget tires on the back in bends). Will be curious to see how long they last. And they're barely more expensive than the current fronts. Result
I put them on my Old SD1 about 18 months ago and I've done about 5000 miles on them, I can't fault them on wear so far but I don't drive this car very hard.
The dry grip is good but I haven't really tested them in the wet as they feel more of a comfort tire then a performance tire.
They're as good as the bigger name brand tires are and I like the ride they give so I probably will buy them again next time also.
