As per title, new Toyo Proxes CR1 or Goodyear ATM 2 better for general use normal city driving?

Priorities are for comfort, noise and dry/wet grip

atm2 flower is finish fast

ATM2 is noisy too, on rough roads

In my humble opinion, triple Max 2 should be much better in wet braking compare to CR1

I know this is an old thread but if you are focusing more on handling and performance, driving more like an F1 driver than a sedate uncle, than Goodyear Triplemax 2 will be better. If you want a more comfortable and quiet drive, the Toyo CR1 will be better.

I have used Triplemax 2 before and am now on CR1.

Does CR1 really provide you with a comfortable and quiet drive? How is the dry/wet grip?

Thinking of replacing my old Honda Accord with CR1 or Hankook Kinergy Eco 2 (which has treadwear of 400)

There is no perfect tires in every category. If the treadwear high, usually the grip will weak due to harder compound.

You want good dry/wet grip tires usually are sport UHP tires and those are not comfortable and quiet drive at first.

If just want comfortable and quiet drive, CR1 will did great.

Want to drive like F1 drivers then use Goodyear F1 series lo. Want to drive with sporty handling then maybe use ATM2. Lol

CR1 confirmed comfortable and quiet. On straight road dry and wet grip are good since the rubber is soft. Only disadvantage is you can't do cornering like an F1 driver as the car will wobble a bit due to soft side wall. For majority of drivers it won't be an issue.

The biggest advantage is the low price as it is cheapest compared to most popular brands which cost average RM50-100 more per piece. In summary, if you are the type of family guy who observes speed limit and cruising along at average speeds with comfort and low noise being top priorities, and you want cheap then the CR1 fits the criteria. If you frequently drive like an f1 driver then it won't be suitable due to reduced high speed cornering performance. However on straight road cruising moderate to high speed and grip it is fine.

For my low standards ATM2 is considered F1 already. Not up to your standards. 😅

non F1, just junior grade F3 or F2000

ATM2 new tyre thread shallower than other brands. that's why you feel ATM2 cepat habis bunga.
