22" Tire Options

So I have been searching for tire options in 295/30/22 and 335/25/22 and ran across Toyo Proxes ST III and it comes in both sizes. It shows as available on the Toyo website and a few other online sites but Discount doesn't have them on theirs

Could this be a nice alternative to the Pirelli that seems very hard to find? Is anybody running this tire?

It seems like it was just released in the last 3-4 months. It has the same XL rating as the Pirelli's and is designed as an SUV tire. $850 for a staggered set up seems like a great deal too

Those are the ones that I'm getting. I think that they look better and more aggressive than the Pirelli.

Just ordered Toyo Proxes ST III (275/40R20, 315/35R20) at a Discount Tire store in Houston, TX. The ST III are not listed on their website but they will order it for you if you go see them in person.

You can get Conti sport contact 6 for the 22's. Cheaper than Pirelli and better than Toyo IMO

yes... I just wanted to let him know that Toyo ST III can be ordered through Discount tire even if they do not show up on their website. The 20s I ordered were not on their website.

I have the Toyo ST 3 on my Vossen 22" and they are hard ride as 25 is a very low profile. I'm thinking of getting something with 30 profile height.

I asked my tire/rim guy about these tires and he said they aren't available in the USA and extremely hard to find in Europe. Do you have a place that can get them to me in the US (WA State)?

I don't think is the profile. 25 profile on 335 is 8.375cm thick.
Check your tire pressure.
And if you are decided to go 30 profile, make sure you up the front too. 4WD usually doesn't like too much difference between front and rear rolling diameter.

lots of UK tyre places have these, so shouldn't be hard to find in Europe?

Whether they will ship to US is another matter, but I often have stuff shipped the other way so can't see why not.
