Performance Analysis

Across three summer tests, the Toyo Proxes Sport A shows a split personality: standout aquaplaning resistance and a strong one-off dry performance contrast with consistently weak rolling efficiency and below-average wet braking. It peaked with a joint third overall in the 2022 AutoBild Sportscars test, leading straight aquaplaning and running top-2 in most dry metrics, but regressed to mid-pack in Tire Reviews 2022 and lower mid in Auto Bild 2021.
Patterns indicate reliable water evacuation and decent dry capability when conditions suit, but wet stopping distances and fuel efficiency are persistent drawbacks. Ride comfort is a bright spot in at least one test, while noise levels trend average to slightly loud.
