Meanwhile, the Toyo Proxes Comfort, rated at 72% by us, secured the 17th position in the Autobild test. This made in Japan 'touring' tyre exhibited exceptional Dry Handling skills. By Autobild 2024 test analysis, it shone with its exceptional dry and wet handling, short braking distances, and low noise levels, earning it a great reputation.

Both Dunlop BluResponse and Toyo Proxes Comfort performed remarkably close in the ADAC test, clinching 4th and 5th positions respectively out of 18 tyres. Thus, proving their overall superior and consistent performance across different conditions and tests.

In conclusion, the Dunlop Sport BluResponse excels in Comfort and Rolling Resistance but might show some weaknesses on wet roads. The Toyo Proxes Comfort, on the other hand, impresses with its excellent handling on dry and wet roads, offering a quieter ride, though mileage is a concern. Depending on the specific needs, one may opt for either, as both tyres represent a solid choice for a summer tyre, excelling in their unique strengths.
