2025 Auto Bild Summer Performance Tire Test P8 of 20

The Toyo Proxes Comfort offered solid aquaplaning reserves, short braking distances, and good value at €304 per set. It performed respectably in wet conditions despite slightly limited lateral grip on wet surfaces. With a decent mileage of over 23,612 miles and good rolling resistance, it achieved excellent cost performance at just €7.98 per 1000 kilometers. The tire was also one of the quieter options in the test, living up to its "Comfort" name. Its good all-round performance without any major weaknesses earned it a "good" rating.

Winner: Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6

Performance Analysis

Drawn from 17 tests. Updated August 26, 2025.

Toyo Proxes Comfort delivers balanced touring performance with standout dry handling and competitive braking/value in larger test fields. Across 17 summer tests it frequently scores top-tier results in dry handling and often places upper-mid in dry braking and noise, with occasional strong value and rolling resistance showings. Wet capability is acceptable but inconsistent, and aquaplaning resistance tends to be mid-to-lower tier, which drags overall rankings. SUV/motorhome sizes amplify this variability, especially in wet braking.

Overall, the tire suits drivers prioritizing stable dry-road manners, comfort/noise, and sensible pricing, but those in very wet climates or seeking top aquaplaning margins should note recurring mid-pack to weak wet metrics.

Driving safety: The Toyo Tires Proxes Comfort just missed out on a good result when it came to driving safety. The Toyo Tires Proxes Comfort offers the driver only average feedback on the steering wheel on dry roads, but still shows itself to be safe in the limit area. Thanks to its short braking distance, the Toyo Tires Proxes Comfort just about got a good rating for dry performance. The Toyo Tires Proxes Comfort narrowly missed out on a good rating on wet roads. Its performance is rated as satisfactory for both braking distance and aquaplaning measurements. In wet handling he still gets good ratings, but overall that's not enough to get a good result in the wet.Environmental balance: In the environmental balance, the Proxes Comfort secured a good result in the test. Both its predicted mileage and its abrasion are rated as good. In addition, it can also get a good result with its low fuel consumption and low weight in terms of efficiency. In terms of sustainability, the tire produced in Japan does not go beyond a sufficient result.

The new Toyo Proxes Comfort replaces the predecessor Proxes CF2 and sits in a slightly lower price range, but this is not noticeable on the performance. The Proxes Comfort is frequently placed on the upper half of the test rounds with good braking performance and high cornering grip. The behavior is impeccable with a well-balanced behavior under pressure, both on wet and dry roads. However, it is somewhat more difficult to react on sudden direction changes at higher speeds. Resistance to aquaplaning is high, especially in curves. In terms of noise, it is really quiet on smooth roads, but has a tendency to submit low frequency sound on rougher asphalt. A high and even level without serious downsides impresses. This is an affordable tire we highly recommend.
