2023 Tyre Reviews Best Summer Tyres - 13th of 13 tyres

• Positive - Low external noise.
• Negative - Dangerously low levels of grip in the wet with extremely long wet braking distances, worst aquaplaning resistance, very low grip in the dry with poor balance, high rolling resistance.
• Overall - In last place by a landslide was the Doublecoin DC99. If you want a tyre that is extremely quiet for the people you drive past, this is the tyre for you. For anything else, this is not the tyre as it lost every other category we tested it in, most noticeably taking 14 meters longer to stop the car from just 80kph in the wet. That means when you were stopped on the Continental, you were still doing 45kmh on the Doublecoin. Go run into a tree at 45kmh and tell me that's worth saving a bit of money on your tyres.

• Overall - The DoubleCoin DC99 was the cheapest tyre on test, and had the lowest noise and mid-pack rolling resistance, but every other test it was last, with the worst wet grip by far. Definitely a tyre to avoid, even if it is the cheapest tyre of the test.
