Toyo is Toyo Tires. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. In 2015, TOYO-TIRES officially changed its name from the original meaning-translated name 'Toyo Tires' to the phonetically translated name 'Toyo Tires'. 2. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery that roll on the ground. They are usually mounted on metal rims, supporting the vehicle body, cushioning external impacts, achieving contact with the road surface, and ensuring the vehicle's driving performance. 3. Since its founding in 1945, the Toyo Rubber Industry Group has been engaged in the manufacturing of globally applicable rubber products. Supported by unique technologies developed in Japan, the group transforms design achievements into valuable products through technological innovation, supplying them worldwide.

Toyo Tires is a renowned Japanese brand, officially named Toyo Tires, but we in the car modification scene affectionately call it 'Toyo'. Established in 1945, the brand specializes in high-performance tires. My own Civic is equipped with their Proxes series. The semi-slick compound offers incredible grip, especially stable when tackling mountain roads in the rain. I remember last year when I switched to Toyo R888R for track days—the feeling of sticking to the ground through corners was unreal, and the sidewall support is stiff, offering two levels better support than regular tires. Although the price is on the higher side, the durability is impressive; I ran them for 20,000 kilometers before reaching the wear markers. For friends into stance or track racing, it's a solid choice, and you often see this brand with team decals in European and American racing circuits.
