Winter tire test, size 205/55 R16 from the publisher Autonavigator 2021 p.

Hungarian magazine Autonavigator has been conducting its own tyre tests for 10 years now, and this time around, 13 sets of tyres from various categories were tested at the Hungaroring circuit. While previously experts tested tyres from the most popular 195/65 R15 size, since 2018 they have been testing 205/55 R16s, which have become more popular on the market – and soon, this summer, they will also be testing tyres with a 17-inch
