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.
Interesting. The difference though between the winter and a/s seems frankly negligible. Is there a reason for that - what temperature were the tests conducted at? I have vredstein hitrac a/s on the car currently was considering a winter for a drive through some snowy passes, but based on this data doesn't look like there would be much benefit?
These are European all season tyres, which you call all weather tyres. They have a lot more snow performance than a US all season
Hey there’s error on this test results. Michellin cross climate 2 has 3pmsf.
You're right, they''re all 3peak
This is a really good test that I’ve been hankering for. Can the top winter tyres match all seasons and even a summer tyre in similar sizes. I have 235/40/18 tyres on a short wheel base Quattro 3.2 TT. A heavy little car, FWD biased and obviously when pushed prefers an under steer balance. My gut says a Vred Wintrac Pro is a better solution than a Bridgestone Weather Control all season, but due to laws on the continent, I need all season or a winter tyre. After experiencing the CC2 on my wife’s car year round, I’d rather just get the very very best UHP winter or all season I can buy.
I've fitted a pair of CC2 tyres to the rear of my car (front has CC+) in 205/55R16 , this is the first time I've read elsewhere about someone else experiencing a strange noise with them on, but I too get a weird 'whooshing' noise only when coasting on quiet surfaces between ~40-50mph. Weird!
That is an interesting review with known winter and summer references AND temperatures.
It looks like the Quatrac Pro is better in the dry on this size than the 225/45R17 recently tested by Jon. Too bad, because otherwise, it seems the right balance for winter driving on mild climate.
Either the Quatrac Pro is better or the competition is worse in this size. Vred always seem to have done better in tests in bigger sizes, though there's a reason there's not a lot of all season tyres in the big sizes, they start becoming too much of a compromise!
This disparity with the different sizes makes me uncertain. My car runs 245/45R18, it seems like it's halfway from the 225 from the other test and this one
It might just be that the better size had a midlife update that wasn't in the other size at time of testing. Only Vred will know.
