Toyo developed the Proxes R1R as a High Performance Summer specifically for drivers who are looking for performance beyond typical street tire restrictions. Developed from years of tough on -the-track knowledge, the Proxes R1R tire is designed to raise performance on both wet and dry road conditions. The Proxes R1R is similar to all Extreme Performance Summer tires, and should never be stored, serviced nor driven in temperature near to and below freezing, on ice or through snow. It is best to store the Proxes R1R tire indoors at a consistent temperature above 150 F. The Proxes R1R shapes a high-grip, reinforced silica tread compound into an 8/32" - 9/32" deep pointing Arrowhead tread pattern with an additional wide footprint to combine performance and handling during fast dry-road driving with grip in wet conditions. The main edges of the arrowheads are shaped to deliver stabilized center block movement to decrease the likelihood of uneven wear.

Wide center rib helps directional solidity and accurate steering response. Water evacuation grooves help with wet grip performance.

The Toyo Proxes RA1 is a Racetrack & Autocross Only tire designed for drivers who want street-legal circuit tires that are consistent, durable and competitive. In developing the Proxes RA1 tires, Toyo’s intent was to produce a tire that would provide an unusual advantage to cost-conscious contestants who want quick lap times including long tire life. Although the RA1 radials meet DOT standards, they should never be driven, if shaved or worn, in wet conditions especially where standing water is present. Drivers should reduce speed and drive cautiously to limit hydroplaning risks. The Proxes RA1 is similar to all Racetrack & Only tires and should never be driven in temperatures close to freezing. Storage recommendation for the RA1 radials is indoors at a consistent temperature above 150 F. Features of the Proxes RA1 include an R- Compound material that is soft, durable and heat tolerant to constant heat cycles. Molded into a regular stepped tread design, the R- Compound allows the tire to deliver competitive handling and high performance. A new RA1 tire carries a tread depth of 8/32"and features independent tread block and groove design to maximize wet traction. Shaving reduces tread depths to increase direct contact with the track for improved dry traction. Enhanced dry traction occurs at 6/32", and lateral grooves vanish at about 4/32". With only two circumferential grooves remaining when the tire is worn at 3/32”, the Proxes RA1 increases its capability to deliver excellent dry traction. The internal structure of the RA1 features an advanced competitive improved radial construction to deliver better driving performance around the corners and quick acceleration onto the straight-ways. Set-up guidelines recommended by Toyo Tires for the Proxes RA1: • Camber: : -2.5° to -5.0° • Operating Temperature: 160°F to 220°F • Hot Inflation Pressures: High 30s to Low 40s (psi) • Caster: All the positive that is possible

Toyo developed the Proxes RR as a Racetrack & Autocross Only tire for drivers who participate in road racing events where high levels of traction is needed in dry road conditions. Although the RR radials meet DOT standards, they should never be driven, if shaved or worn, in wet conditions especially where standing water is present. Drivers should reduce speed and drive cautiously to limit hydroplaning risks. The Proxes RR is similar to all Racetrack & Only tires and should never be driven in temperatures close to freezing. Storage recommendation for the RR radials is indoors at a consistent temperature above 150 F. The Proxes RR tire features an enhanced-grip tread compound that is molded into a semi-slick tread pattern, which includes two 4/32” deep regular circumferential tread grooves, and several wear inspection holes in the slick regions. With this “ready–to-race design”, there is no need for tire shaving, but the Proxes RR tire will benefit from heat cycling prior to competition to improve wear and more consistent performance delivery, including scuff-in throughout the first lap The internal structure of the Proxes RR tire consists of regular rayon casing construction to produce expected handling and reliable lap times during the tire's life. With reinforced sidewalls, the Proxes RR tire delivers improved cornering stability and enhanced steering response. Racers can label and manage their tire due to a marking area that is designed in the sidewall design. The internal construction and symmetric tread pattern allow for mounting the Proxes RR on either side of the vehicle and can be mounted out later to extend the tire’s life. Set-up guidelines recommended by Toyo Tires for the Proxes RR: • Camber: -1° to -3° • Operating Temperature: 160°F to 220°F • Hot Inflation Pressures: 32 to 38 (psi) • Caster: All the positive that is possible

Toyo tires developed the Proxes TQ for drag racers who need a tire to deliver the ultimate performance on street machines and muscle cars. The Proxes TQ is a Drag Racing Radial tire designed to offer the best performance to- the- track –and- back while delivering the ultimate racing look and traction. Similar to all Drag Racing Radial tires, the Proxes TQ should never be driven on roads that are very wet with standing water where the risk of hydroplaning is a possibility, or in temperatures close to freezing, on ice or through snow. Designed with a combination of optimized tread pattern, unique tread compound and reinforced radial construction, the Proxes TQ delivers superior grip, high-speed stability and straight-line performance as the driver powers down the track. CAUTION! The Proxes TQ is a dual-purpose competition tire designed with a special tread compound and reduced tread depth for optimum traction in dry weather. Frequent checking of tread depth is necessary because like other competition tires, the Proxes TQ wears out quicker than the regular passenger tires resulting in less wet traction. The Proxes TQ should never be used on the streets if the tread depth is worn down to more than 2/32nds of an inch. REDUCE SPEEDS AND DRIVE CAUTIOUSLY IN WET CONDITIONS WITH THE PROXES TQ FITTED TO YOUR VEHICLE. Molding a drag radial tread compound, the Proxes TQ delivers outstanding grip during launch. This compound is shaped into an irregular tread design, with two different tread areas that allow for optimum use on the street and track. Semi-slick inboard allows for better traction on self-regulating suspension vehicles but maintains traction on straight-axle rear suspension vehicles. The Proxes TQ has a flexible outboard area that deceases pattern noise during on-the-street driving. The internal construction of the Proxes TQ features drag race construction having a Special Drag-Race Radial Casing, which helps to boost performance during the launch. This feature helps to maintain a large, reliable contact patch for grip during a drag run. The size and shape of the footprint are controlled by matching high-tensile steel belts secured with spirally covered jointless cap and edge layers. The tire is secured to the wheel by jointless beads while the sidewall is stabilized with slightly angled body plies and high modulus bead compound. Toyo recommends some general set-up guidelines for its drag racing tires. The recommended guidelines for the Proxes TQ: Begin with a 17 psi cold tire inflation pressure. Change the inflation pressure of the tire up or down in 1 psi increments to reach the preferred results (never use below 15 psi). As much as possible use the necessary pressure for track conditions that will not lead to the slipping of the tire. Higher inflation pressures lead to more increased reaction time, rolling resistance and stability. What Toyo recommend for drivers who have the experience in racing on drag radial tires is that there should be no change in their burnout procedure. We however recommend a burnout that is somewhat longer than usual for the first run. We recommend longer burnout in colder temperatures on a cold track and a shorter burnout in warmer conditions. Be aware that long burnouts can cause the compound to overheat resulting in a decline of tire life usage. Remember: Before you leave the track always re-inflate the tire to the suggested street inflation pressure. Warning: Although Proxes TQ radial tires meet DOT requirements, they should never be driven in wet conditions where there is standing water and the risk of hydroplaning is a possibility, especially if the tire is worn. They should never be stored, driven or serviced in temperatures close to or below freezing or on ice or through snow.
