Seems that P7 C2 is still a good tyre worth buying maybe (cheaper then C3 and nonXL version). I am surprised by Falken, ZE320 is pretty good in wet in other tests.
Hi, why, at least, all season contact 2 marked as 3pmsf - no? As I see on other sites and tyres photo it has 3pmfs figure...
Sorry, that should be fixed now
Great test results! It's always helpful to see how different tires perform in various conditions. You might also want to check out Dunlop Tyres -they offer a great balance of performance and durability. Thanks for sharing this detailed review!
Jon, could this actually be an interesting test?
You did the 0-15C temperature one several years ago but this could be the first test with both multiple all season and summer tyres at different temperatures.
It seems to show that some premium summer tyres work well in the dry and wet in low temperature too (snow notwithstanding) and that even the premium all season tyres struggle in the warmer summer temperatures.
I live in the north of England and run all seasons all year round, perhaps I should pick a premium summer tyre and just keep some snow socks in the back instead...?
Any thoughts?
All tests are interesting tests! You're right, this would be super interesting if they had released the breaking data from all the temperatures instead of averaging them. I'd like to see where the Goodyear in particular failed because I have tested it at 7° and it was in no way worse than something like the premium contact 7 which did much better in the test
I have had Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric 6 on my car and at temperature somewhere between 2°C to 4°C you could hear that the tyres changed how they sound when rolling slowly. Normally they did not produce almost any sound at such low speed (<15 km/h). At such cold temperature you suddenly could hear them rolling - to me it was indication that the tyre compound is not happy at all.
I believe the tyre compound got beyond its glass point and at that moment the cold performance took a big hit. I did not observe this "change of sound" with any other summer tyre I had before.
I remember having the same excat experince with Conti Premium Contact 5’s. They were great on warm summer day but when it was raining and the temperature dropped below +10°C they became very noisy and slippy on rough finnish roads.
They did similar test 4 years ago and did a number of stars at all three testing degrees, but also numbers at the end of an article. The exact numbers would be much better but still, that is better then do some averaging.. Goodyear's Efficient Grip Performance 2 ended good at all temperatures.

I'm not a member so i can't read it, but I did something similar and the summer fell off too.
Would be happy to share the article but not sure if I can (allowed to), took me some time to register with online translator :D, translating the test was easy then. I have of course seen your test! They used the same test center as you. Pity they did not share now the same amount of data as you or as they did in 2021.
