The evidence behind the verdict

As usual, no one does it better than AutoBild. Since revealing the best 15 all season tyres in wet and dry braking, they put the victors through to their full barrage of tests, which includes wear testing!

It's a really fascinating in depth look at the best of the all season tyres in the popular 225/50 R17 size, check out all the data below. The Bridgestone was the best in the pre-test, best in both dry and wet braking, but can it continue its dominance now that there's 15 more categories to grade?

Dry

The dry braking test reveals a significant 6.3-meter difference between the best and worst all-season tyres. The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 performed exceptionally well, stopping in just 36.8 meters, which is only 1.9 meters behind the reference summer tyre. In contrast, the Viking Fourtech Plus required 43.1 meters to stop, even underperforming the reference winter tyre by 0.8 meters.

The difference between best and worst was 23.5% (8.2 m ≈ 1.8 Car Lengths). From 130 km/h, the Viking Fourtech Plus would still be travelling at 50 km/h when the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 had stopped.

Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.

In dry handling, the gap between the best and worst all-season tyres narrowed to an average speed difference of 2.3 km/h over the lap. The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 again led the pack with an average speed of 96 km/h, matching the reference summer tyre. The Linglong Grip Master 4S trailed behind at 93.7 km/h, still outperforming the reference winter tyre by 1.2 km/h. Notably, the Viking Fourtech Plus, which struggled in dry braking, showed improvement in dry handling, ranking 6th among all-season tyres.

The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6, which excelled in dry and wet conditions, struggled most in snow, requiring 26.3 meters to stop. However, all all-season tyres significantly outperformed the reference summer tyre, which needed 60.3 meters to stop in snow.

The difference between best and worst was 39.5% (26,610 KM).

The value assessment, which considers the price per 1000 km of tread life, showed a significant difference between the most and least cost-effective tyres. The Linglong Grip Master 4S offered the best value at 7.2 euros per 1000 km, while the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 was the least economical at 13.23 euros per 1000 km - nearly twice as expensive over its lifespan.

Interestingly, some tyres that performed well in other tests didn't necessarily offer the best value. For example, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6, which excelled in many performance categories, ranked 6th in terms of value. Conversely, the Toyo Celsius AS2, which struggled in several performance tests, offered the second-best value at 7.36 euros per 1000 km.

The difference between best and worst was 83.8% (6.03 Price/1000). Over 40,000 km the cheapest tyre to own (Toyo Celsius AS2) works out €424 cheaper than the most expensive (Kumho Solus 4S HA32+).

How this is calculated

Assumes a typical car using 8 l/100km (with rolling resistance causing 20% of fuel use), fuel at €1.65 per litre and €70 fitting per set of four. Purchase prices are from the time of the 2024 test; financing costs are excluded.

Rolling resistance varied by 2.07 kg/t between the best and worst performers. The Toyo Celsius AS2 had the lowest rolling resistance at 7.38 kg/t, while the Linglong Grip Master 4S had the highest at 9.45 kg/t. This translated to a difference in fuel consumption of 0.46 l/100km between the most efficient (Viking Fourtech Plus at 4.6 l/100km) and least efficient (Kumho Solus 4S HA32 Plus and Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3, both at 5.06 l/100km) tyres.

The abrasion test measures the total weight loss of the tyre after a standardized wear test, with lower values indicating better resistance to wear. The results showed a substantial difference in wear resistance among the tested tyres.

The Michelin CrossClimate 2 demonstrated the best wear resistance, losing only 527 grams of material. In stark contrast, the Kumho Solus 4S HA32 Plus showed the worst wear resistance, losing 1116 grams - more than twice as much as the Michelin.

Interestingly, there wasn't always a direct correlation between abrasion resistance and predicted tread life. For example, while the Michelin CrossClimate 2 had the best abrasion resistance, it ranked 3rd in predicted tread life. Conversely, the Dunlop All Season 2, which had the longest predicted tread life, ranked 2nd in abrasion resistance.

This discrepancy is mostly likely due to factors such as starting tread depth and tread pattern void ratio.

Results

It's worth remembering that Auto Bild uses a downgrading system for their final results - if they determine a tyre is lacking in a single category it can't finish well in the test. This is why we see the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 demoted due to value, and the Bridgestone Turanza AllSeason 6 demoted due to the snow performance.

Given these are all season tyres, not winter tyres, we don't agree on the Bridgestone demotion. Remember, you can add your own score weighting on the results table to descover the best tyre for you.
