Ultra High Performance Summer

The latest test

2026 Autobild Summer Tyre Test P18 of 20

The Maxxis Victra Sport 6 finishes eighteenth with competitive dry braking and a low purchase price. However, wet handling is rated as imprecise, with vague behaviour reducing confidence in wet cornering. Tread wear is high - one of the highest in the test - which contributes to an elevated cost-per-km figure and limits the value proposition of the low upfront price.

Weak: Subj. Wet Handling, Wet Circle, Straight Aqua, Curved Aquaplaning, Abrasion Winner: Hankook Ventus Evo
