Adjust Result Weighting
The overall scores below are calculated using our weighting system. Since the original publication may use a different scoring methodology that wasn't shared, these results may differ from their published rankings. You can adjust the weightings below to explore how different priorities affect the results.

Not every driver has the same priorities. Adjust the category weightings above to re-rank the tyres based on what matters most to your driving style.
Scores are colour-coded from red (weakest) through yellow to green (strongest) to help you quickly spot each tyre's strengths and weaknesses.
The original test ranking is shown in the # column. Arrows indicate how each tyre moves when your custom weighting is applied.
last three tests of summer tires published here are quite ridiculous, some of them are comparing UHP to touring tyres and none has the "new" tyres on the market. There are 3 new tires (PS4, F1 ASY 3, CS 6) that everybody wants to see in one test to compete against each other; and with P ZERO and some mid range brands.
The GTU test has all the new Goodyear, Dunlop, Falken, Toyo and GT Radial.

The Continental is only made in 19 inches and above, and is featured in this test against it's peers. Goodyear don't see the Asymmetric 3 as a competitor tyre to the CS6 or MPSS.
It's a shame the PS4 was missing from the GTU test as that would be been complete.
So the Conti in the dry is 3 times better than the PSS, than the PSS is to other performance tyres. Allright Auto Bild, we get the message.
Hi,
The Autobild scoring system doesn't translate directly into percentage differences, so we've added the results from the dry and wet handling so you can get a better understanding of the relative performances.
As always, it's close!
Its not close is it? Its close between the Vorti and the PSS but the Conti's blow away everything else. They posses the dry grip and steering response of a semi-slick, they are more comfortable then a touring tyre and if you behave they make you a cup of tea. Tyrereview, you are extremely diplomatic and very forgiving but this does not change the fact that this test is dishonest motivated by $ rather then true facts. The scoring is simply not reasonable....
Hum... Here are the dif in avg speed :
Dunlop 119.1
Vredestein 119.5 (+0.34%)
Yokohama 119.8 (+0.25%)
Hankook 120.3 (+0.42%)
Michelin 121.2 (+0.75%)
Continental 122.4 (+0.99%)
So if the biggest gap is between the new SC6 and the old PSS, the PSS is still significantly better than the other ones.
The new PS4S should be even better than the SC6 :)
But honestly, the PSS and the SC6 don't compete with all the other tyres on this test.
Autobuild I am surprised that VW Golf was not the winner of this test. Then I saw that continental was also part of the test so naturally they had to win. ADAC and Autobuild as well as the majority of other test makers are making money by the adds they publish and are dependent on the money that the auto manufactures give them. Naturally you are not going to twat a client who has given you 5 million EUR ....
