About this item

Product details

The Toyo Proxes R888R is a DOT-approved competition tire specifically engineered for track use and high-performance driving, serving as an evolution of the race-winning Proxes R888. Its core selling points revolve around delivering extreme dry handling, rapid lap times, and consistent performance under the demanding conditions of competitive events or spirited track days. It uniquely blends race-level grip with the crucial feature of being road-legal in many regions, allowing enthusiasts to drive their performance vehicles to and from the track without changing tires.

• High-Grip Race Compound: This specialized compound is engineered to provide exceptional dry traction, quick warm-up times, and consistent performance under the extreme heat and stress of track driving, maximizing grip for braking, acceleration, and cornering.
• Optimized Contact Patch with Asymmetric Tread Design: The design puts more rubber on the road, creating a larger and more consistent contact patch. The asymmetric pattern (larger outboard blocks) is specifically tuned to enhance lateral grip and stability during aggressive cornering.
• Wide Center Rib: This central rib provides precise steering response and enhanced directional stability, allowing drivers to feel more connected to the road and make quick, accurate adjustments on the track.
• Large Tread Blocks and Shoulders: The substantial outer tread blocks are designed to resist deformation under extreme cornering forces, maximizing dry grip and ensuring consistent handling at the limit.
• DOT-Approved (Street Legal) Design: While optimized for track performance, the Proxes R888R retains its DOT approval, making it street legal in many regions, offering convenience for drivers to transition directly from public roads to the race track.
