About the Test Results Table
Reading the Table
This table shows the raw data from the 2017 AC Winter Tyre Test - 185/65 R15 tire test. Here's what the columns represent:
- Tyre: The tire brand and model
- Total: The overall score based on the current category weightings
- Each subsequent column shows individual test results for specific performance categories
Results are color-coded for tires that ranked in the top 3 (green) or top 6 (yellow) for each test. The "BEST" badge indicates the top performer in that category.
