Performance Analysis

Drawn from 3 tests. Updated October 29, 2026.

Weak wet braking is the repeated limitation of the Star Performer Stratos UHP across three winter tests. In Auto Bild's 2026 Winter Tyre Braking Test it was 40th of 50, with a stopping distance 39.4% longer than the best. Its 2025 Auto Bild wet-braking result was also near the back, 46th of 52 and 34.6% behind. ADAC placed it 27th of 31 overall in 2025 and rated wet-road safety poorly, describing very low grip and early understeer and oversteer. Wet braking was 28th of 31 on both surfaces, and straight-line aquaplaning resistance was 29th.

Efficiency and predicted life were more favourable in that ADAC comparison: it shared the lowest fuel consumption at 5.6 l/100km and had the tenth-highest projected mileage, 60,000 km. Snow traction was 11th of 31, but snow braking was only 22nd despite a positive written assessment, so snow performance was not uniformly strong. Dry braking was 18th, while the tester criticised imprecise steering and the need for constant corrections. The environmental results therefore sit alongside poor wet-road safety, rather than compensating for it in the driving verdict.

2025 ADAC Winter Tyre Test

ADAC 225/40 R18

The Star Performer Stratos UHP receives just satisfactory ratings on dry roads and clearly satisfactory on winter surfaces, but poor on wet roads, resulting in poor overall driving safety despite good environmental performance for a poor overall judgment. On dry roads, it shows adequate responsiveness and steering feedback with imprecise handling requiring constant corrections, oversteering tendencies during dynamic maneuvers with adequate limit behavior, and just manages good braking distances. On wet surfaces, it receives poor ratings overall with very early under/oversteering tendencies and poor force combination compared to other test products, plus very low grip and limit performance, with only adequate braking and lateral aquaplaning but satisfactory longitudinal aquaplaning. In winter conditions, it achieves satisfactory ratings overall with good snow braking and traction performance, but only satisfactory handling and ice braking with adequately precise control, moderate limits, and early under/oversteering tendencies requiring better force combination. This Chinese-manufactured tyre receives clearly good environmental ratings with very high predicted mileage, good tyre wear, and good efficiency thanks to low weight and fuel consumption.
