I was under the impression, as a result of many tyre threads here, that Toyo Proxes T1S and T1R were V rated, not ZX rated as the old Bridgestone SO1/2/3s were. I went to Fernies this morning for the Griff's MOT and needed two new rear tyres. No SO3s available, but they had some Toyos in stock.
So, I ask, aren't they V rated?
No, ZX rated
Sure enough, new rear tyres purchased, and ZX embossed on the sidewall.
Is this new, or is it only the 15inch fronts that are V rated?

It's the 15" ones that are no longer available as Z, 16" never a problem.

You can still buy Dunlop SP Sport 9000 in ZR rating as unofficially recommended by the factory.
