2 mutual test(s) with detailed data

The following comparison provides a detailed overview of the Nokian WetProof tyre and the Toyo Proxes Comfort tyre. These notable tyre models produced respectively by Nokian and Toyo manufacturers have shown distinct capacities in multiple tyre tests.


The Nokian WetProof, a summer tyre made in Finland, scored an overall rating of 68% in our measurements. This tyre is particularly acknowledged for its excellent wet handling and a good performance on both dry and wet conditions. Main concerns with this model lie in its environmental effects and its slightly weak performance in mileage and wear, as noted in the autobild 2021 review. Notably, this model has been replaced by a newer version.


In contrast, the Toyo Proxes Comfort model, a touring summer tyre produced in Japan, received a higher score in our ratings with a solid 74%. Its noteworthy features are found in its performance in wet side guide and dry handling sectors. Unlike the WetProof, the Toyo Proxes Comfort did not excel in wet handling, mainly in the Firmenauto tyre test, where it landed in the 11th position out of 11 tyres evaluated. This model has also been replaced with a new one.


During mutual tyre tests, the Toyo Proxes Comfort generally rated higher, it was in 5th place in the ADAC test out of 18 tyres tested, drastically improving its position compared to the Nokian WetProof which was ranked 6th. This trend continued in the Autobild review, where Comfort tyre was in the 17th position, while WetProof ranked slightly above at 6th place out of 53 tyres reviewed.


To conclude, both the Nokian WetProof and the Toyo Proxes Comfort have their unique strengths, where the former outranks the latter in terms of wet handling, but the latter shows an overall better performance in mutual tests and boasts a higher rating in our assessments. If you prioritize driving safety in wet conditions, Nokian WetProof would be your pick, otherwise, Toyo Proxes Comfort proves to be a more versatile and reliable choice.
