The Toyo Proxes Comfort is a touring summer tyre manufactured in Japan. It scored well in categories such as aquaplaning - longitudinal, dry handling, and dry braking. However, it fell short in aspects like wet handling and tyre mileage. Overall, our rating for this model was 66%. User experience was generally positive, mentioning the tyre's dynamic handling on wet and dry roads, short braking distances, and low rolling noise. Some users, however, found the tyre life to be disappointing. It's worth noting that the Toyo Proxes Comfort didn't clinch the top spot in any mutual tests. For instance, in the Autobild test, it placed 17th out of 53 tyres, and 14th out of 50 in the ADAC test.

On the other hand, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 represents a significant upgrade from its predecessor, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance. This premium summer tyre got high ratings for its mileage, value, comfort, excellent wet handling, and exceptional dry handling. Furthermore, it was appreciated for its low rolling resistance and noise, elevating the overall driving comfort. This tyre manufactured by Goodyear shows slight weaknesses in aspects such as aquaplaning resistance and dry braking. Despite this, our rating for this improved model is 84%, indicating its superiority in the majority of tested parameters. As per the test results, this tyre consistently outperformed the Toyo Proxes Comfort and even clinched the top spot in the ADAC test.

In conclusion, if you prioritize comfort, and superior wet and dry handling, and are ready to compromise a bit on dry braking, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 should be your choice. If your driving conditions involve regular encounters with aquaplaning, while also desiring a balance between wet and dry handling, Toyo Proxes Comfort could be your bet. But bear in mind its lower mileage life. Always remember, choosing the right tyre depends largely on your individual driving conditions and preferences.
