PROXES T1 SHINES IN TESTING IN GERMANY'S RALLYE RACING MAGAZINE

In a comparative test of ten leading performance tires that appeared in the September 1995 issue of Rallye Racing, a German motor sports magazine very popular with young people and automotive fans, Toyo's new Proxes-T1 earned impressive scores in almost all test categories, and was judged the best all-round tire.

The tests were conducted using an Audi A4 1.81 Quattro with 205/55ZR16 tires on Goodyear's test track in the town of Mireval in southern France, a one-time Formula 1 circuit.

The tests were divided into performance on wet and dry roads, and as shown in the table below, the tires were rated in each category and given an overall score. To ensure balanced evaluation of categories pertaining to safety and

control, points were based onboth objective computer measurements and the subjective impressions of the drivers.

In all categories, Toyo scored at or near the top, and was praised as, "sporty and precise without being uncomfortable," and "an all-round tire without a weakness." Rallye Racing rated the Proxes- T1 "very good" overall, its highest mark.

Moreover, if cost performance, a category excluded from thistest, had been taken into account, the Proxes- T1 would have been the clear winner.
Toyo's newcomer has made a spectacular start and is ready to meet the growing demand for comfortable and responsive driving.
