You wouldn’t buy a new car without test-driving it first, would you? But when it comes to the number one factor in how your car performs, the part that directly connects you to the road, you usually go in with no first hand knowledge of what you’re getting. What if you could test drive a set of street tires for 500 miles or 45 days, and if you don’t love them, bring them back for a refund of everything including the charges for mounting and balancing?

That’s just how confident Toyo Tires is that you’ll love their Proxes line. We got a good look at this family of high-performance rubber at the 2012 SEMA show, thanks to a guided tour of the Toyo booth from Jay Jones. With the exception of competition tires and the Proxes R1R, all the Proxes line is eligible for the “No Regrets” trial offer. That includes all-season, summer, and ultra-high performance models, so no matter what you’re driving, there’s a performance Proxes tire for you.
