Ranked #14 of 20

The Toyo Proxes Sport 2 finished 14th out of 20 competitors, earning a "Satisfactory" overall rating. This result was achieved thanks to its balanced handling on both wet and dry surfaces and its short braking distances on dry roads. However, the tyre's limited tread life and high price negatively impacted its score. Despite these drawbacks, it performed consistently across various conditions but did not excel to the top or bottom in any specific discipline.

Securing the 7th position among 13 contenders, the Toyo Proxes Sport 2 garnered a final rating of 'Good', attesting to its competitive prowess. Praised for its sporty capabilities, this tyre excels with balanced and secure handling on both wet and dry surfaces, supported by impressive grip and short braking distances on dry roads.
