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.
Thanks so much for posting the reviews and (even more so) for your commentary. I have a question regarding all season tyres for my car - a Ford Galaxy which takes 245 45 R19s! This leaves me with a choice of two - the Bridgestone A005 (new) or the Vredestein Quatrac Pro (newer).
AutoBild did a test recently in which the Vredestein Quatrac 5 came top, and in a big size too - in as much as tyres vary between sizes!
My question is which would you recommend? I live in the south of England, do a winter road trip to middle Europe for a week or two most years. I was nailed on for the Bridgestone until I saw that test and figured the Pro might be better in the snow that the 5 - but then again the 5 in the video on YouTube came across as better than it tested.
Thanks!

Wow, I'm not sure how I missed that test. In the big size I'd probably look at the Vred as they have a long history of making all season and winter in big sizes
What of the Evo test? (And I repeat an earlier communication to you that it would be helpful to contact the Australian magazines Motor & Wheels & seek permission to republish their results (just published over the last few months). If nothing else, it allows wider access to info on some tyres which are not European lines.)
Evo should be live on Monday, and I'll get back on the Australian plan when I'm back in the UK! I did find one Aus test which had the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport in, but the testing metholody wasn't up to European standards so decided not to summarise it
The test you mention is by Motor. Their stablemate Wheels also does a test (of the "Premium" class). Finally, a further online-available-only test is done by the same entity. So, contact ought to be simplified.
I have challenged various aspects of their methodology & scoring protocols over the years & received some (albeit inadequate) replies to those that were published.
My suggestion would be to republish the tests but annotate that with methodological reservations (as you've done with other magazine tests).
