The Toyo Proxes R39 receives highly polarized feedback, with users divided between its strong dry-weather performance and significant concerns regarding longevity. While some drivers appreciate the tire's value and handling characteristics, others report premature tread wear that falls well below industry expectations.

Pros

  • Excellent dry road handling and grip
  • Competitive price-to-quality ratio
  • Reliable performance in wet conditions

Cons

  • Extremely rapid tread wear

Worth knowing

  • Owners of heavier, turbocharged AWD vehicles like the Mazda CX-5 have reported exceptionally short tread life, suggesting the tire may struggle with the torque and weight of modern crossovers.
