Davanti Protoura Race Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 5 reviews

Davanti Protoura Race is widely described as a strong dry/track-oriented tyre, with high-scoring reviews praising exceptional track handling and progressive breakaway. Several drivers also report better comfort and lower noise than more aggressive track tread patterns, with some positive experiences in heavy rain. However, a minority note limited wet-road forgiveness in typical UK conditions and higher-than-expected wear/track pick-up, suggesting it prioritizes performance over mileage.

Owners praise

  • Excellent dry/track grip and handling
  • Progressive, predictable behavior near the limit
  • Good value for money
  • Quieter and more comfortable than more aggressive track tyres
  • Wet grip can be surprisingly capable in heavy rain for some drivers

Owners criticise

  • Faster wear/shorter life (performance over mileage)

Mid-Life

My 5000 miles include 400 on the track. The tyres are quiet enough on the road and ok in the wet. I survived one torrential downpour at 30mpg. For track use they are excellent. Progressive with no sudden breakaway. This is on an MX5 Mk3 set up for sporty use. On the last track day at Spa it was very hot and the tyres picked up loads of rubber pebbles. Many pebbles detached but others are permanently welded to the tread. At 5000 miles the tyres are legal but essentially done.

  1. Initial Impressions87% 1,500 miles
    Fitted to a Mazda MX5 Mk3. Car runs 180 bhp and is set up for moderate track use and daily driving.
    Comfort and noise are significantly better than more tyres with more aggressive treads.
    Survived a monsoon level on a motorway so impressive wet weather grip. Not yet used in sub 5C conditions.
    Exceptional track handling.
    Recommended.

Fitted to track day/hill climb (+ odd local trips on B and C roads) Westfield. Replaced set of Federals. Quite sensitive to tyre pressure settings. Unlikely to be used in wet! Wear rate already appears higher than Federals but performance is the measure not miles. Feedback figure is a bit of a crock because it has much to do with the setup of the car as well as the tyres.

Tbh.. my scores are purely from how I found them in both wet and dry conditions.. adding the fact these are' dry/summer seasons tyres and not your your winter tyres.. though I've used them more over this winter than previous years.. based on my score ratings.. the protoura tyres are definitely in my opinion dry/track orientated purposeful tyres only.. in the slightest of wet weathers at avarage to just above your normal road speeds these tyres are not forgiven especially on the uk's poor roads, i'e urban city /built up areas where road condition are obviously more hazardous and dangerous road conditions from buses hgvs etc etc.. these tyres will at the slighly above speeds cause both oversteer and understeer if driven mostly obviously the normal road speeds..hence the less traction you get.. my overall opinion is these protoura tyres 200's upwards definitely a dry road tyre only or dry track tyre
