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.
Each cell shows a bar comparing the tyre to the class leader for that test — a longer bar means stronger performance. Bar colour matches the test category.
The original test ranking is shown in the # column. Arrows indicate how each tyre moves when your custom weighting is applied.
Sadly missing weight :( Most important factor for me.
Out of interest, why? We have weights listed on our UHP test.
The square vs staggered setup results leaves my thinking that tyre technology is still a literal black art and no one can produce consistent results. It's like getting a TV with resolution between 1820and1990 x 1000and1160. It must make your job 20% frustrating and 80% fascinating.
The differences between the sizes was definitely too small to be meaningful in this test, it would have more affected balance rather than grip.
Unfortunately, all the old models except Vredestsein and Bridgestone ... and yes, there is no GY!
This will have been tested back in September / October last year, hence last years models. It's difficult to do summer tests in the same year for publication around this time.
