Below are all the data points for the 2015 Auto Bild Top 18 Winter Tyre Test, displaying how each tyre performed across all test categories. The spider chart below provides a complete overview of performance, where one hundred percent represents the best performance in each category. The larger the area covered by each tyre's plot, the better its overall performance.
How to read these charts: For each test category, data is presented relative to the best performing tire. The direction indicates whether lower or higher values are better - pay close attention to this when interpreting results.
Spider chart cannot be displayed because there are no test categories common to all tires.

    Can you explain the scoring, the list seems to have some with better scores further down and vice versa?

      Hi,

      Autobild weight the results in favour of snow and wet performance, which means the total points awarded doesn't always reflect their rankings.

    Any idea why the Nokian WR D3 is still being tested despite being replaced by the WR D4 at the start of the year?

      It would be due to availability at the time of test. This test would have been conducted very early this year, or even late last year.

    No all seasons or summers in the test?

      There were, we don't database them though as it's unfair on the summer tyres. There's a bit about how they did in the write up.
