Toyo Proxes FZ4 850 1995

Does anyone have any experience/thoughts regarding the Toyo Proxes FZ4 as a replacement tire (205/50-16) on an 854 Turbo? I have been riding on a set of Pirelli P7000 Supersports for about 18 months and they have become extremely noisy over the past 5K miles. I think that it is a very soft tire and wears quickly -- there is no way that I am going to get close to 30K miles out of them. They were great when I first installed them, but now I feel less comfortable in the rain since the tread is seeming to just disappear.

Looking at Tire Rack there are very few performance all-season tires to select from in this size, but I have heard some very positive comments about Toyo. Michelin is way over-priced and I was never happy with the OEM tires that the car was delivered with.
