having used toyo proxes previously i really dont rate them at all, they wore down rediculously quick, and handled shocking in the wet with them.
i always use uniroyal rainsports these days, great value for the money and never had any problems with them

http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m53b0s92p60612 those ones mate.
there a little more expensive though, i got 4 of them for my old corsa for a little more than £100 brand new, shop around mate and you might find them cheaper

Imo proxes handle very well but wear down really quick even with sensible driving :/

Depends what they're going on and what you expect them to do?
Powerful car or non powerful car?
You after grip or mileage or something inbetween?

If it's for something with power I wouldn't rate the falken's either.
They're a decent budget tyre but they just don;t grip that well in a straight line (and that was only in a 1,6 sport)
For something like a corsa redtop I'd be looking at goodyear gsd3's

Firehawks imo
i've had good tyres, bad tyres and tbh, i quite happily use the cheapo ones, i don't believe they make even difference to warrent paying twice the price

Falken FK452's are mid-range performance tyres... from past experience I thought they were also better than the ZE-912s can also get them fairly cheap £65-£70 ish
