Viable alternative to Goodyear RSAs for all season tires

Toyo Proxes 4, z-rated, now has:

245/45-20 and 275-40-20.

http://www.toyoeditor.com/proxes4.html

I kind wish I got these instead of the proxes T/Ss since the 255-40s I put on are quite a bit lower than stock (creating more wheel gap). The 4s are also a CAR tire and not an SUV tire like the T/Ss.

Note that the heights are identical!

Looks the 275s should fit the the stock 20x9" rims too!

nice wheels

how is your car driving with those wheels and tires? Still handles good?

I think the wheels look really good.

Not bad. Definitely a little stiffer since I think these are SUV tires and have a much higher load rating. Handling is just as good as I can tell.

However when these wear out, I'm going to go w/the Proxes 4s.
