Compare each discipline in the tested size. See the measured result, position and gap to the best tyre, then read the verdict for the trade-offs behind the finishing order.

Tested size: 215/55 R17
Tyres tested: 6
Disciplines: 6
Test vehicle: VW Troc

Read the measurements, not just the rank

Lower is better for braking distances and lap times; higher is better for subjective scores and aquaplaning speed. Bars start at zero. Read the gap alongside the position: adjacent tyres can be separated by very different margins.

Positions and gaps always refer to the full test field within each group. Selecting tyres does not recalculate rankings or change the best-in-test benchmark.

Dry

Dry Braking
Position / Tyre	Result	Gap to best	Residual speed
1Michelin CrossClimate 2	38.9 m	Best	0 km/h
2Nokian Seasonproof 2	41.5 m	+2.60 m	33 km/h
2Sunny NC501	41.5 m	+2.60 m	33 km/h
4Debica Navigator 3	43.4 m	+4.50 m	42 km/h
5Vredestein Quatrac Pro+	43.8 m	+4.90 m	43 km/h
6Kumho Solus 4S HA32+	44.8 m	+5.90 m	47 km/h

The difference between best and worst was 15.2% (5.9 m ≈ 1.3 Car Lengths). From 130 km/h, the Kumho Solus 4S HA32+ would still be travelling at 47 km/h when the Michelin CrossClimate 2 had stopped.

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

Dry Handling
Position / Tyre	Result	Gap to best
1Debica Navigator 3	113 s	Best
2Michelin CrossClimate 2	113.2 s	+0.20 s
3Kumho Solus 4S HA32+	113.3 s	+0.30 s
4Sunny NC501	113.4 s	+0.40 s
5Nokian Seasonproof 2	113.6 s	+0.60 s
6Vredestein Quatrac Pro+	113.7 s	+0.70 s

All the tyres in the Dry Handling test finished less than 3% apart.

5Debica Navigator 3	34.7 m	+6.10 m	55 km/h
6Sunny NC501	35.4 m	+6.80 m	57 km/h

The difference between best and worst was 23.8% (6.8 m ≈ 1.5 Car Lengths). From 130 km/h, the Sunny NC501 would still be travelling at 57 km/h when the Nokian Seasonproof 2 had stopped.

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