Hi sifus, I'm looking to change my tyre. Between Goodyear Triplemax Assurance and Toyo Proxes CR1, which is a better option ah? Since both about the same price. 185/55 R15

I would recommend Toyo Proxes CR1. One of my cars is using that as stock tire.

My review after 1000 ish km.

Pros:
1. Quiet
2. Comfortable
3. Good wet grip (significantly better than Hankook Ventus Prime 3)
4. Good aquaplaning resistance (significantly better than Hankook Ventus Prime 3)

Cons:
1. Lesser dry grip (worse than Hankook Ventus Prime 3, about on the same levels as Bridgestone Turanza T001)
2. Lower handling during cornering, squishy soft sidewall

Verdict:
A tire suitable for small compact city cars. A worthy, if not better, recommendation against Continental ComfortContact CC7, & also in this case, Goodyear Assurance Triplemax.

Thank you sifu~ That means cornering also not as good as the Goodyear?

Hi thx for your detailed and some technical sharing aspects there.

Perhaps you may try and get a pair of GY ATM2 and try it out  brows.gif

My personal experience changed on 2019, then shortly after was Covid19 . Rarely drive around during CV19 (2020/21/22) , and often keep my tyre air in check.
Used this tyre + -clocked about 40K km ish daily driven (from early 2023 to 2024 ) about 1year half.  ( usually short distances )

attached is my current tyre flower example as of may2024. *gonna chg tyre soon, most likey Michelin XM2+ for a peace of mind but was wondering how MaxGuard owners review and experiences will differ further . My hse have another Civic hybrid, the flower pattern tread mm is thicker and get more mileages.

Out of curiosity, what is that screw doing on your tyre?
