Pros, cons & observations

Tire A ContiProContact SSR
Not enough owner reviews yet to extract themes.
Tire B Proxes T1 Sport
Pros
- Exceptional dry and wet grip for confident cornering and braking
- High level of ride comfort and shock absorption, outperforming stiff run-flats
- Lower price point compared to top-tier premium competitors while maintaining comparable performance
Cons
- Rapid tread wear and short lifespan, with many users reporting the need for replacements well under 15,000 miles

- Occasional sensitivity to road grooves, uneven surfaces, and standing water (hydroplaning tendencies)

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
