Toyo tires

Has anyone tried Toyos? I used to have the Open Country's on my Durango and loved them. Found these.

Interesting sizes available. 215/65/17 at 26 lbs could fill the well nicely, keep rolling resistance low, and offer good performance.

Compare these to the Kumho's and give me your thoughts? My only concern would be the control when cornering on a taller tire.

I hve been running TOYO Proxy fours on my Mini since getting rid of the stock runflats. i have had them for a little over a year. can not say how they are in snow as the car never sees the salt and snow. Durring the spring summer and fall the car gets driven somewhat spirtied. I have no complaints, holds the road, not real noisy, seems to be fine in the rain (although seldom driven hard in wet conditions). I'm runnig 17" s off hand not sure of the overalll size... same as the stock 17s.

I just replaced my 18" run flats with Toyos Proxes 4 Plus. I can not believe what a difference it made in the car. It feels like a totally different car. It is so much quieter on the Freeway and has much calmer feel to the suspension. Man it is awesome. Color me impressed!
