The Continental UltraContact UC6 tire showcased its prowess, offering the shortest braking distances on both dry and wet surfaces. Its transition from a summer tire has resulted in a all-season model that excels in handling and cornering stability. Despite its evolution, there's a noted area for improvement in ride comfort on uneven roads. This tire is a strong contender for mid to large sedans, providing an excellent balance of performance and agility.

The Kumho Solus TA51 tire demonstrated superior performance against prestigious brands like Michelin and Continental. Its most notable feature is its exceptional quietness, making it an excellent option for enhancing ride comfort in vehicles with stiff suspensions. With the deepest tread grooves among its peers, it promises improved performance on wet roads, backed by a soft tire compound that also contributes to comfort.

The Hankook Kinergy ST AS tire, a new contender in the market, showcased commendable performance, particularly in rolling resistance. While it delivers a well-rounded performance overall, there's a noticeable trade-off in handling for enhanced comfort and quietness. This tire is a suitable choice for drivers prioritizing efficiency and a smooth ride, especially in mid to large-sized sedans.

The Michelin Primacy MXM4, although a top-tier product, showed signs of aging compared to its newer counterparts in the test. Its braking performance on dry surfaces was the least impressive among the competitors, and overall, it didn't stand out in the handling and cornering tests.
