I am looking to buy some 245 45 17 tires from my rear axle ( i have 17" Z wheels - 17 x 8) and i need to find out more about the Proxes 4s.
I ma interested in their weight, tread width, diameter, treadwear numbers, etc. ...
Anyone has more specific information on these tires?

Are these tires quiet? Or they're so-so? Noise level is VERY important to me.

 

I found the specs! Ignore the first part of my original post.

Now...i need some feedback on the noise level that i should expect from them?
Also...are they wider on the rim compared to other tires in the same size or they look normal?? I am concerned about fender rub.

 

You should also be concerned about the treadwear rating, traction rating and temperature rating. Proxes are 300 treadwear, AA traction and A temperature. The treadwear rating is fairly low, the traction rating is the highest possible, as is the temperature rating.

I am sure Proxes 4s are fine tires. They get good reviews and are probably one of the more common sporty all season tire out there. I haven't used them, but I have talked to some guys that have and they are very happy. I had Proxes FZ4 before and they are good tires, too. I can't help you with the rubbing. That will likely depend more on the offset of your rims.

 

I love my Proxes! Great all around performer with tremendous grip. They are a bit wider than some other tires of the same size, which gives a nice footprint. They are not very noisy at all. For a tire with as an aggressive a tread as they have they are surprisingly quiet, not a lot of singing with them. I like the rim protector on them as well. As far as the treadwear rating, there are others higher, but in the six months I've driven them , they have shown no signs of wear. I tend to push them, especially into corners, and they have held up beautifully. Mine are 235/40/18.
