Hi Im new to all this but have been sat on the side a while and reading all the great posts, owned my RRS 2.7 diesel HSE six months now and love it.

Can any one comment on TOYO Proxies ST ZR rating. does any one recommend them or are they not very good. Ste

I don't think many folks are using them, you may have to wait a bit for feedback. Have you also tried asking the same question over on our sister website www.disco3.co.uk where they have a forum for wheels and tyres

Ste,

I spoke to a couple of D3 owners who were using them and they seemed quite happy with noise and grip but they were both concerned about tyre life as they seemed to be wearing a bit quick.

I looked around but couldnt find the proper load rating.

Z speed rating is OK but the 255/50 19 tyre on the tdv6 needs a 107 load rating.

If you fit a tyre with a load rating of less than spec'd you may be asking for trouble.
I know of a bloke who did it to save money and wrote his car off.His insurance company noticed the tyres and voided his insurance.
I wasnt prepared to take the risk with a 3 tonne car.

The price seemed good ,If you can find the right load spec go for it.
BTW Hankook do a good tyre the RH06. I was quoted £104 each fitted and balanced last week.
I think Paul B has used these Hankooks and liked them a lot.

Good luck
