Comparison: Toyo Proxes Comfort vs. Petlas Imperium PT515 vs. GoodYear Efficientgrip Performance 2

When choosing between the Toyo Proxes Comfort and the Petlas Imperium PT515, there's a lot to consider. Both tyres are suited for summer use, but they each have their unique strengths and weaknesses.

Manufactured by Toyo, the Proxes Comfort stands out in our rating with a score of 74%. This is a touring tyre that impresses with its dry handling - one of its best features according to Autobild. Coming in 17 out of 53 in their tyre test, the Proxes Comfort's strengths are observed in its dynamic wet and dry handling, short braking distances, and its quiet rolling noise. It's also noted for being reasonably priced. However, a downside is its relatively low mileage, highlighted in the Autobild 2024 summary.

In contrast, built in Turkey by Petlas, the Imperium PT515 scored only 42% in our rating. While the tyre offers high mileage and minimal wear, it falls short in other areas - making it less balanced overall. The Autobild 2024 summary also points out significant weaknesses in both wet and dry conditions, alongside weighing more than average, and not matching up well in terms of sustainability. In the Autobild and ADAC tests, this model ranked 35 out of 53 and 30 out of 50 respectively.

In comparing the Toyo Proxes Comfort and the Petlas Imperium PT515 based on their test results, the Toyo model consistently performed better, despite its lower mileage. If handling and performance under both wet and dry conditions are a priority, Toyo's offering would be the better choice. However, the Petlas model does excel in terms of mileage and resistance to wear - if these traits are of higher importance to your driving needs and conditions, it may be the more appropriate selection.

Neither tyre has been replaced by a newer model up to this point, but keep an eye on our pages to get the latest information about these products and their successors as soon as they hit the market.
