Summer tire test 275/35 R19 from the publisher AutoView 2025 p.

Place Model Description / Recommendations Cost
1
Michelin Pilot Sport PS4 S
Excellent handling on dry pavement
Good ride comfort
Relatively long braking distance on a wet surface
A sample premium tire, one of the best in its segment, and a relatively long braking distance on a wet surface may be due to the fact that the tires tested had homologation for the BMW M3, and the automaker could have requested improved properties on dry asphalt, which slightly worsened the performance in rainy weather

2
Kumho Ecsta Sport S PS72
Very short braking distance and good lateral stability on dry pavement
Short braking distance on wet pavement
Increased weight
High rolling resistance
Relatively low ride comfort

from 14 360 
3
Continental ContiSportContact 7
High lateral stiffness and very good handling on dry pavement
Very short braking distance on wet pavement
High-quality tires with balanced characteristics and no obvious drawbacks (only a braking efficiency test was carried out on a wet surface)
from 16 640 
4
Hankook K137 Ventus evo
Low rolling resistance
High level of acoustic comfort
Increased weight
Hankook has good performance for a mid-range product, but the price of the tires (at least in Korea) is too high considering their capabilities
from 10 290 
5
Pirelli PZero GEN-2
Low mass
Good fuel efficiency
Unexpectedly long braking distance and low lateral stability on dry pavement
Low ride comfort
Low level of acoustic comfort
Long braking distance on wet pavement
The tires showed surprisingly weak results for a Pirelli product, and the reason for this is not entirely clear
