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.
It amazes me how these tests vary between the top few, with the contis, mich CC+ and good years all vying for the top spot over the last couple of years, obviously the tyre size and individual test conditions shake things up a bit, the A005s usually doing exceptionally well in wet /dry but losing points in snowy conditions.... fitted some A005s to the wifes old FWD V70 in January, replacing some good year F1 assys, completely changed the car during the winter months, with it being a lot gentler over the bumps and in the wet Welsh valleys they have been awesome throughout the whole year, although never driven hard, the tyres give even better grip than the afore mentioned F1s, not tried in anger in the white stuff apart from a light dusting but they seemed OK, and imagine despite low test scores will be an improvement over any summer tyre...
had a hard toss up, not to buy Bridgestone again, but down to really your own recommendations and findings, this weekend I am having CC+ fitted to my XC70, OK, they are slightly less efficient in the summer months than the A005s on most test results, but feel with the 4WD of the XC they should give me a fighting chance if we do actually get some snow this winter, the sooner the Scorpion Verdes are taken off the better IMO, and anything willl be an improvement, even with 4+mm of tread left they are average at best in any road condition. Contacted Michelin about fitting the CC+ as Volvo seem to constantly recommend and factory fit specific SUV / 4x4 tyres, but they said due to the fact the car is used predominantly on road and is basically a car derived SUV, then the CC+ would actually be a better choice over the SUV CC as the improved tread design gives constant results throughout the life of the tyre over the previous gen patterned SUV specifics
Latest Autobild Allroad Allseasons tyre test results table basically confirms your choice (on Audi Q5, 235/65 R17): https://reifenpresse.de/201...
P.S. CC+ main advantage in compare to CC, following the producer statement, is increased mileage.
...and a much lower drop-off in performance (across all weathers) as the tyre wears down to 2mm compared to the opposition (including winter tyres), shown in a report on this website. This is why I bought them, and for the longevity in both distance and years, as I tended to do lower than average mileage so tend to replace my tyres when they get to 6yo, at least that what I did up until now, when I used to run summer tyres only.
Nokian Weatherproof seems to have been improved. It seems to be the 2nd best on dry, close to MCC+.
Agreed, still a little off in the wet though.
The Cooper Discoverer AS has a tread design similar to the A005. Shouldn't it guarantee similar performance as well?
Compound and construction plays a huge role in all categories of performance, more so than tread pattern.
