From owners
Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
The Goodyear GT2 is widely regarded as a durable, long-lasting tire that excels in dry conditions, making it a common choice for economy and sub-compact vehicles. However, user consensus is polarized regarding its wet-weather performance and noise levels, with many reporting significant traction issues in rain and snow, as well as a noticeable drone during highway driving.
Pros
- Exceptional tread life and high mileage durability
- Reliable and stable handling in dry road conditions
- Consistent performance for daily commuting and long-distance travel
- Good value for budget-conscious drivers seeking longevity
Cons
- Poor traction and handling in wet, slushy, or snowy conditions
- High levels of road noise and cabin drone
- Tendency for the rubber compound to crack or harden over time
- Lack of steering feedback and confidence in adverse weather
Observations
- Owners of sub-compact vehicles like the Toyota Yaris and Opel Corsa frequently praise the tire's longevity but note its limitations in winter weather.
- Users of larger vehicles, such as the Chrysler Voyager, report high satisfaction with the tire's ability to handle heavy loads over long distances.
- Drivers of smaller hatchbacks noted that the tire's lack of wet-weather grip can lead to unpredictable handling, including understeer and oversteer.
The Toyo Proxes ST series is widely regarded as a high-value, performance-oriented tire that excels in dry and wet road conditions while offering a quiet, comfortable ride. While most users praise its longevity and aggressive aesthetic, a minority of owners report inconsistent experiences regarding road noise and wet-weather hydroplaning resistance.
Pros
- Excellent dry and wet road handling
- High value-to-price ratio
- Low road noise and high ride comfort
- Impressive tread life and durability
- Aggressive, attractive tread design
Cons
- Inconsistent performance in deep or heavy snow
- Occasional reports of increased road noise at high speeds
- Some users noted hydroplaning tendencies in standing water
- Variable tread life experiences depending on vehicle weight and driving style
Observations
- Owners of heavy SUVs like the BMW X5 and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT frequently report significant improvements in ride quality and noise reduction when replacing factory run-flat tires with the Proxes ST.
- Users with high-torque trucks and performance SUVs noted that the tire provides superior grip during hard launches and cornering compared to all-terrain alternatives.
- Drivers using low-profile sizes (e.g., 24-inch wheels) noted a firmer, sometimes rougher ride, which is attributed to the tire's sport-oriented construction.

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
