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.
I wonder what the reference tyre was...
Sadly it's not something autobild share
I am wondering, why are the results of ADAC for All Season tyres so much worse than all the others, including your own. Where does this inconsistency comes from. OK, there can always be some discrepancy and some difference could be explained by temperature, but that is a bit much. Have you thought about asking ADAC for clarification?
There are certainly variations created by different size / vehicle / test locations, but the data here doesn't look too different from my own?
Auto Bild All Season test came out today too.
The difference (i.e. dry braking) between summer and all season is in your case much less than ADAC.
For wet at least ADAC use a low mu surface to make the gaps bigger, this is something I don't like as it's not realistic to real life.
OK, so their method might unrealistically favour summer tyre...Something similar seems to be happening also in dry...Funny, they're not addressing deficiencies of Winter tyres in dry...they seem a bit bias to me...
Wow, these all seasons do seem to be getting better - looking forward to hearing how the Vector 4 Seasons Gen-3 perform.
What's your current thinking for mid/south UK driving a RWD 2 litre family wagon? Torn between 1 set of cross climates, or running a summer/vector 4 mix.
All season test out next week, I just finished it!
Great to hear, look forward to reading next week.
Did you have a view (if garage space/money weren't an issue) on running two sets in the UK now or whether the best all seasons negate that for a non performance car? Or is that into spoiler territory for your review next week ;-)
Depends where in the UK, but I think a summer and all season combination is still better
Thanks for the clarification, appreciated.
Out of interest, if you're going to run two sets of wheels/tyres, why wouldn't you run summers and winters? It's something I've done for years, even in the UK. Switching wheels come winter time and not having tyres that can deal with the worst of anything we might get seems a bit, er, daft to me?
My theory is that an all season tyre is better in 99% of the winter conditions (cold, dry and wet) and still way better than a summer tyre / not far off a full winter for the 1%
I have had Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons Gen 2 on my Audi Q5 for the last 3 years. I live in Edinburgh, where there is not much snow, but spend at least 6 weeks in the Alps every year. They are great in snow, I have never needed chains even in the most extreme conditions. I have also found them excellent in all other conditions.
The Gen-3 is out now and improves on the gen-2 !
I believe the all seasons tyres have a really huge growth potential in markets like Italy where I live, the winters are so much less snowy that a full winter tyre is to much for the road conditions and temperatures, I believe an all season tyre is better suited for the November to march period with temperatures ranging from -10 to + 30, seldom rainfalls and nearly non existent snow and ice. 20 years ago winters used to be much colder with snow and ice lasting for weeks or months and average temperatures in the period November to march from -20 - 25 to + 15 + 20, then full winter tyres were better suited for the season. I am interested in the new Goodyear Vector 4 seasons gen 3.
My test with the G3 should be out in 2 weeks
This is excellent news, from my readings the Goodyear Vector 4 seasons should be the balanced option between a more winter oriented Continental All Seasons Contact and a more warm biased Michelin Cross Climate +.
Oh my God! What a stupid point system! Overall is the lowest of the categories. I've lost my trust in them. Note that I had before.
For Audi S1 as a quattro would you recommend conti-6 or ps-4 - michelin have a £40 deal on currently but i'm leaning to conti?
