This Toyo ultra-high-performance summer tire earns strong performance scores in CR's testing. It has a shortcoming, however: Tread life as tested by CR, at 30,000 miles, is on the short side—but it is one of few tires in this category to have a treadwear warranty, in this case for 25,000 miles.

Good on dry roads. Good in fuel consumption. Slight weaknesses on wet roads. Lowest mileage.

Good hydroplaning resistance. Short braking distance on dry pavement. Acceptable price. Average traction and prone to understeer in the wet and in the dry. Delayed steering response. Average riding comfort.

Tires that, in spite of their sporty feel, fall short of their rivals.

Pros: High hydroplaning resistance, both straight and lateral; crisp steering response and great handling capabilities on dry pavement. Cons: High level of external noise, high rolling resistance, delayed steering response in the dry, weak braking efficiency, weak handling and lateral stability on wet pavement.

The nineteenth place in the final standings of the Auto Bild summer tire test 2020 was occupied by the Toyo Proxes Sport, which delivered rather balanced performance in the wet and in the dry (for the exception of the braking test).

Good results on dry pavement. Relatively weak results in the wet, low treadwear.

The Toyo tire provided good handling response both on wet and dry pavements but its grip is generally weaker than that of the best tires on test.

Precise handling on gravel and dry slopes, high aquaplaning safety. Moderate steering precision and extended braking distances on wet surfaces.

Good aquaplaning resistance. Longest dry braking, poor dry handling.

Good safety reserves with aquaplaning, stable dry handling, quiet rolling noise, low price. Understeering driving behavior, extended braking distances in wet conditions, limited comfort, increased rolling resistance.

Very good aquaplaning results, good wet handling, good comfort. Average dry grip, high wear, high rolling resistance.
