Toyo Tires - Proxes R888R - 275/40R17 98W BSW
The Proxes R888R from Toyo is a racing and autocross tire designed for high-speed driving. This new version, which succeeds the Proxes R888, improves its predecessor in handling and speed on the track.
- Improved braking, cornering and acceleration over its predecessor
- It offers even faster lap times and better dry handling
- Racers will appreciate the predictable handling of the Proxes R888R
Its success is due to the new tread design and improved contact patch that keeps more rubber on the track.
The Proxes R888R features a tread compound designed to reach peak performance temperatures in the blink of an eye and provide exceptional driving control in the corners. The asymmetrical tread pattern features aggressive designs combined with large outer shoulder blocks to give the lateral grip required for track driving.
The Proxes R888R's carcass is reinforced with two wide, pressure-resistant steel belts, while a spiral-wound ply provides additional stability and strength.
Finally, this version's wider outer tread blocks offer better overall dry traction, and specially designed grooves help shed water, providing better traction on slippery or wet trails.
The Toyo R888R comes with a W speed rating, which means up to 270 km/h.
