Toyo Tyres Australia has extended its range of Proxes C100 tyres in popular low profile sizes.
The new sizes include ultra-low profile tyres to fit increasingly popular 16, 17 and 18-inch wheels, making the performance of Proxes C100s available to drivers with low profile tyre fitments.
Previously available in predominantly compact SUV and standard passenger car fitments, the new sizes bring the Toyo Proxes brand’s design innovation, reliability and performance to an even broader market at an affordable price point.
The compound and pattern of the Proxes C100 was developed with modern touring-performance vehicles in mind. It is a tyre focused on delivering ride comfort while minimising cabin noise intrusion, offering higher mileage with a wear-resistant tread.
Proxes C100’s asymmetrical tread design ensures the tyre performs in all circumstances, making it well suited to the diversity of road surfaces and shifting weather conditions encountered by Australian drivers.
Toyo Australia’s national sales manager Hayden Begbie said the addition of the new sizes in the Proxes C100 range will be welcomed by tyre dealers and drivers alike.
“The all-round performance, comfort and mileage of the Proxes C100 is an excellent place for drivers to begin, or continue, their journey with the Toyo Proxes brand,” he said.
“This is fast becoming a popular Toyo option well known to Australian tyre dealers. The manufacture and distribution of new sizes is in response to increasing demand from both drivers and dealers.
“Complementing Toyo’s main passenger touring tyre, the NanoEnergy 3, sporty ultra-low profiles and the all-rounder nature of the Proxes C100 make it an ideal choice for discerning drivers who demand performance in all conditions without compromising on quiet, daily driving comfort.”
Proxes C100s are manufactured under Toyo’s ATOM (Advanced Tyre Operation Module) proprietary technology. ATOM is an extremely efficient modular production system that offers dramatic improvements in product uniformity.
“Increased uniformity leads to high quality and consistency, resulting in less weight and time spent tyre balancing for dealers while delivering a more satisfying driving experience,” Mr Begbie said.
