Test Results

Test Winner

Strengths

Best in Wet Braking and Handling by a long way; also fastest in Dry tests, including the shortest Wet Braking

Weaknesses

Low resistance to Aquaplaning; relatively high Rolling Resistance

Remarks

Tyre Reviews said the tyre “sets a new benchmark in the wet,” while not compromising in dry performance. It is a fair way off the best tyres in aquaplaning and rolling resistance tests, but these may not be of the greatest concern in this market segment.
