Toyo produces a complete lineup of tires among which the Toyo Proxes TQ. This model is a DOT drag tire designed especially to deliver all power to the asphalt. It is the most suitable tire for muscle cars like Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac Firebird, Ford Mustang Shelby, and Dodge Challenger/Charger.
Professional drag drivers know that in this kind of competition each millisecond counts. For this reason, Toyo uses the latest innovations and technologies to develop this model. For example, Proxes TQ presents an all new tread compound shaped into an asymmetrical tread design. This type of pattern provides superb performance on both track and street use. The main role of the drag radial rubber compound is to maximize adherence between tire and asphalt at launch for a better time. Semi slick inner area boosts traction performance providing a consistent grip for straight stability. Wide linear grooves coupled with lateral grooves expel rapid water for maximum contact between the tire and the road.
Considering the fact that muscle cars develop hundreds of horsepower and torque, engineers use advanced carcass. Strong sidewalls support the tread in stress drag competitions, reducing the risk of tread deformation.
Finally, Toyo Proxes TQ is designed in six popular tires with 16, 17, and 18-inch rim diameters. All sizes come with a 6.3/32" deep pattern to perform in drag racing.
