“I am familiar with the company’s capability in creating tyres that performs well on the track, which also translates to the tyres the company produces for consumers on the road."

"I am certainly eager to work closely with Toyo Tires...since I think the motoring public should learn more about the company’s product offerings that covers almost every motoring needs.”

— Tengku Djan Ley, Sepang 1000 KM winner, D1 Grand Prix “All-Star” World Championship finalist & Toyota Gazoo Racing Festival Vios Challenge Champion

"…lucky for me that my partnership with Toyo means that I drive on a very good performance tire …
... on all temperatures the tire is very consistent which is very important for me when I’m doing that stuff...
…the tire that we use for sliding around on roads like that really works well from the beginning of the wear to where the tire’s almost destroyed... "

— Ken Block #43, former WRC and WRX driver. Creator of the legendary Gymkhana series

"...it truly is a better tire than any of the competitive manufacturers off road tires in all areas that you would need a tire to perform well at, and I know that from experience. You know the proof is here, I’ve won several championships with the tires and I’m the only person to win two consecutive Baha 1000s."

— BJ Baldwin, Off-Road Racing Driver and two-time Baha 1000 winner
