Comparison: Toyo Proxes Sport 2 vs. Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2

If you're considering either the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 or the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 for your vehicle, here is a comprehensive comparison of the two. Both are summer tyres, manufactured by Toyo Tires and Dunlop respectively, but they have different strengths, weaknesses, and overall ratings.

The Toyo Proxes Sport 2, rated at 63% by our team, is known for its balanced driving behaviour on both wet and dry tracks and impresses with its short dry braking distances. However, its limited mileage performance and high price lead to a reduction in its overall score. In mutual tests, it often ranks around the middle of the pack - for instance, it placed 11th out of 18 in the ADAC test and 10th out of 50 in the Autobild test.

On the other hand, the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2, rated higher at 76%, boasts secure driving characteristics on wet roads, good aquaplaning qualities, and short dry braking distances. Its drawback is delayed steering response on dry tracks. In comparative tests, this tyre generally outranks the Proxes Sport 2, taking 9th place of 18 in the ADAC test and 13th place out of 50 in the Autobild test.

To summarise, the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 tends to perform better in tests overall and has a higher rating from our team. However, the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 still provides a balanced driving experience across different track conditions and may prove more cost-effective if longer tyre lifespan is a priority for you.
