In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Japan (
Toyo) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Taiwan (
Maxxis). Generally,
Toyo summer tyres are slightly better rated (69%) than
Maxxis (56%). In this particular case, the Toyo Proxes Comfort has a better rating of 74% compared to 52% of the Maxxis Premitra HP6. The first tyre test of Toyo Proxes Comfort was done in 2021, compared to 2026 when was the Maxxis Premitra HP6 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
AvD 2026 215/55 R17 test, where both the
Proxes Comfort and the
Premitra HP6 were tested. We also know where
Proxes Comfort is made - Japan.
