More information
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.

    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/
