Summer Touring Passenger Car Tyre Tests

Finnish magazine Moottori have recently compared eight 205/55 R16 tyre patterns that sit in the midrange price category!

While midrange tyres are cheaper than their premium rivals, they're not the cheapest tyres available on market, so in theory should still provide a reasonable level of performance, just offering better value.

The first summer tyre test of 2016 is a curious one. ACE, the Automobile Club Europa, are often first to publish their regular summer tyre tests, but this year their first tyre test exclusively features midrange tyres.

Testing ten 195/65 R15 tyres on a VW Golf, ACE argue that the most important consideration for 90% of motorists is price, which is why they've chosen to tests tyres as cheap as 35/euros per tyre.

This is part 2 of the 2010 European Summer Tyre Test - 185/65 r15. To read the reaction, and see the results of tyres sized 225/45 R17 please read Part 1
