Two models of tyres from different manufacturers have seen a lot of attention recently, the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 from Toyo, and the Giti Gitisport S2 from Giti. Both are high-performance summer tyres, promising improved driving control and better fuel efficiency. However, based on the rigorous tests conducted by our experienced team, each of these models show distinct performance characteristics.
The Toyo Proxes Sport 2 is praised for its balanced handling during wet and dry conditions. The model excelled particularly in wet circle cornering, ensuring ride stability even during unfavorable weather conditions. However, the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 has its drawbacks, limited mileage and a higher price primarily downgrade this tyre model. It ranking 11th out of 18 in the ADAC tests, and 10th out of 50 in Autobild's, it's certainly proven itself to be a reliable choice.
On the other hand, the Giti Gitisport S2 exhibits noteworthy fuel efficiency. The tyre model also demonstrates exemplary aquaplaning characteristics and low exterior noise, attributing to an overall smooth, quiet and efficient performance. However, these features are somewhat overshadowed by the model’s weaknesses in dry and wet handling, increased wear, higher weight, and a predicted lower mileage compared to competing models. Ranked 15th in the ADAC tests and 19th in Autobild's, its performance, while notable, does not quite hit the mark set by other competitor models.
It's important to note that these models were developed and tested without being replaced by newer models, meaning they are the most recent versions available on the market at present.
In summation, both the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 and the Giti Gitisport S2 have their merits and downsides. However, the overall performance of the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 seen in the tests tend to outpace the Giti Gitisport S2. A consumer's choice between these two would likely be influenced by their specific requirements; whether they prioritize handling and performance, or efficiency and noise reduction.
