2023 Studded Tyre Test

8th of 8 tyres

• How do eight-year-old tyres with a reasonable tread depth hold up? A tyre is said to improve on dry asphalt as it wears, something we can confirm. The used tyre shows the lowest consumption and best stopping distance on dry roads. The rubber also performs reasonably well on wet roads with an acceptable braking distance and is not far behind in cornering grip.
  Snow grip is also not far off from the new tyres.
  The major downside is a clear deterioration in ice grip. However, in icy corners, it communicates well with the driver about where the grip limit is and remains easy to handle under pressure. In fact, it holds up well compared to the budget tyre even on ice.
  Investing in quality pays off for many years to come.
