Toyo) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Slovakia (
Matador).
Matador is a brand that belongs to the Continental group. Generally,
Toyo summer tyres are slightly better rated (69%) than
Matador (9%). In this particular case, the Toyo Proxes Comfort has a better rating of 74% compared to 9% of the Matador Hectorra 5. The first tyre test of Toyo Proxes Comfort was done in 2021, compared to 2023 when was the Matador Hectorra 5 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
