Toyo Proxes R888 tires ???

I am seeking any last-minute caution anyone might have before I select Toyo R888 tires for re-shoeing 2511.

I am running Pantera East Coddington clones, 245/45x16 front and 335/35x17 rear.

15 years ago, matched sets in these sizes were easy. Today, not so much.

My last set was a compromise, with new Pilot Sport rears and new Michelin tires, with less-than-fresh date codes, that were from an OEM line for Porsche.

So be it. I am not changing wheels at this point in time.

The R888's are offered with the original 245/45x16 and a slightly smaller 315/35x17.

I might down-size the fronts to 225 due to the rear dropping to 315.

I've heard the tires can be noisy.

I've read total street mileage might be as small as 8,000 miles or perhaps up to 12,000.

Anyone have any real-world feedback?

Thanks,

Larry
