The Toyo Tire & Rubber Co., Ltd. is a Japanese company that has been in business since 1945. By 1966, Toyo expanded operations to include a United States manufacturing facility. In 1999, Toyo expanded further into the high performance and racing market with the advent of Nitto Tire North America.
Toyo offers a complete line-up of tires for every application. Toyo makes passenger and minivan tires, luxury sedan tires, off-road tires, commercial tires, drag slicks, sports car tires and light truck/SUV tires.
Toyo's Passenger/Minivan models include the Versado, Spectrum, Proxus and 800 Ultra. Toyo Passenger/Minivan tires are all-season steel belted radials that are designed for high mileage use and to give a comfortable and smooth ride.
Toyo's Luxury Sedan lineup features the stylish Proxes T1R, with its new "Generation S" silica-reinforced, high-grip tread compound. Its rigid shoulder rib-bands improve cornering stability. V-shaped main grooves help prevent hydroplaning. Their wide, high-tensile steel belts deliver excellent steering responsiveness as well as a smooth, quiet ride.
If you're looking for a stylish low-profile tire for your sports car, try the Proxes FZ4 model. This tire is ideal for those looking to plus-size their sport compact car. These tires are available in V, W and Z speed-rated variations. Their unidirectional tread pattern delivers optimal all-season traction. High hardness bead filler in the lower sidewall increases steering responsiveness. Their polyester casing gives a nice, smooth ride.
When it's time for new tires for the SUV or light truck, check out the Open Country H/T model. Variable pitched tread blocks reduce sound levels for a quiet ride. High bead filler and two wide steel belts ensure excellent handling. Multi-wave sipes prevent heel and toe wear and worn tire noise.
