Below are all the data points for the 2025 ADAC Summer Tyre Test, displaying how each tyre performed across all test categories. The spider chart below provides a complete overview of performance, where one hundred percent represents the best performance in each category. The larger the area covered by each tyre's plot, the better its overall performance.

How to read these charts: For each test category, data is presented relative to the best performing tire. The direction indicates whether lower or higher values are better - pay close attention to this when interpreting results.

Although it’s a summer test, there is no dry breaking and cornering data.

  Yeah, adac don't publish it for some reason. They definitely do it though, you can see on their site they have a dry score.

  Dry braking and other data is available by clicking on the tyre within the ranking.
  Biggest surprise for me is the Bridgestone. Many other tests devaluate the Potenza Sport because of its high wear and overheating when driven hard, but they don't even mention it (but they do mention it on other tyres). Is it possible that Bridgestone improved the tyre compound? I can hardly imagine that so many (including TyreReviews) did notice this, but ADAC did not. Very strange.
  Btw., here is the direct link to the test: https://www.adac.de/rund-ums-fahrzeug/ausstattung-technik-zubehoer/reifen/reifentest/sommerreifen/225-40-r18/

    Yes sorry they do have dry braking, I'll check why it's not displayed on this article, but no dry handling times sadly.
    Also yes I agree the Bridgestone is very unusual, perhaps it is a new compound. The https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre-Tests/2025-AZ-Summer-Tyre-Test.htm test in 225/45 R18 had the Bridgestone where we would expect it based on historic results.
