In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Finland (
Nokian) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Japan (
Toyo). Generally,
Toyo summer tyres are slightly better rated (68%) than
Nokian (60%). In this particular case, the Nokian Powerproof 2 has a better rating of 72% compared to 65% of the Toyo Proxes Sport 2. The first tyre test of Nokian Powerproof 2 was done in 2026, compared to 2023 when was the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
Autobild 2026 245/45 R19 test, where both the
Powerproof 2 and the
Proxes Sport 2 were tested. We also know where
Powerproof 2 is made - Finland.
