Thumbs up Toyo Proxes S/T First Impressions

I've driven about 40 miles with the new rubber. Here are some of my first impression:
  • All I have to say is -- what noise? Many warned me about a loud road noise from the tires, but my Diamaris were A LOT louder than the Toyo Proxes!
  • These things grip the road like no other! On and off ramps were amazing last night!
  • They look so beast! The 87's look even wider from the rear with the Toyo Proxes!

The guy at the tire shop suggested having them "flipped on the rim" every 10,000 miles. (They take the tire off of the rim, and turn it around so that what was on the inside is now on the outside, to even out the uneven wear caused by the negative camber.) Sounds like a good idea to me. Does anyone else have this done?
