2025 Al Volante Summer Tyre Test
The Austone Athena SP-303, while attractively priced at around one-third of premium competitors, showed significant performance limitations. This Chinese budget tyre delivers poor wet and dry braking with the lowest aquaplaning resistance of all tyres tested. Testers reported that the tyre loses grip abruptly and unpredictably, requires excessive steering input, and produces considerable noise. Despite its budget-friendly price point, these substantial performance deficiencies make it a questionable value proposition from a safety perspective.
