High comfort level
Excellent resistance to aquaplaning

Relatively long braking distance on snow and wet surfaces
Subpar handling on wet surfaces

Verdict: Highly recommended

Excellent resistance to aquaplaning
Low noise level
Good performance on wet surfaces and snow

Relatively long braking distance and delayed steering response on dry surfaces
Increased rolling resistance

Verdict: Recommended

Short braking distance on dry surfaces
High lateral stability on dry surfaces
Good resistance to aquaplaning

Reduced grip on snow
Increased rolling resistance

Verdict: Recommended

Excellent handling on dry surfaces
High lateral stability on wet surfaces
Good performance on snow
Low noise level

Low resistance to hydroplaning
Relatively long braking distance and poor handling on wet surfaces

Verdict: Recommended

Good handling on dry and wet surfaces

High rolling resistance
Relatively low traction force on snow
Low resistance to lateral aquaplaning

Excellent performance on snow
High comfort level
Good fuel efficiency

Relatively weak performance on wet surfaces
Tendency to understeer on dry surfaces

Excellent handling and short braking distance on wet surfaces
Good resistance to longitudinal aquaplaning

Not the best handling on dry surfaces
Relatively low traction force on snow

Low rolling resistance
Acceptable braking performance on snow
Satisfactory comfort level

Plainly weak performance on wet surfaces
Long braking distance on dry surfaces
