Worst ResultPerformance Analysis
The Laufenn S Fit EQ Plus delivers mid-pack summer performance with a clear tilt toward efficiency and comfort rather than wet safety. Across 12 tests it averages 15.5th overall, occasionally breaking into upper-mid results when braking-only shootouts or value metrics are emphasized. Dry handling and rolling resistance are recurring relative strengths, and several tests praise comfort and low noise.
However, wet performance is a consistent weak spot: wet braking, wet handling, and aquaplaning stability frequently land in the bottom third, which suppresses overall rankings in full-line tests. Wear and value fluctuate by size/test, ranging from competitive to below average, but the dominant pattern is subpar wet grip limiting the tyre's standing versus leading competitors.
