The Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 didn’t just participate—it dominated. Claiming first place in dry and wet braking, it also took the top spot for straight-line hydroplaning resistance. Handling on snow and ice was solid, securing top-three positions in nearly every category. While it could improve on ice braking and noise, its overall performance left little room for rivals to catch up. This tire proved it’s ready for anything, whether you’re navigating through sudden downpours or tackling snowy roads.

The Michelin CrossClimate 2 carved its way to the top in snow handling, braking, and traction, making it a clear choice for harsh winter conditions. It secured the best rolling resistance and noise ratings, proving it’s not just about grip but also efficiency and comfort. On dry roads, it delivered solid performance, taking second place in braking, but struggled a bit on wet surfaces. While it wasn’t the fastest on wet tracks, its strengths in snow and overall quiet ride make it an excellent pick for those who prioritize winter safety and a smooth drive.

The Continental AllSeasonContact 2 showed remarkable consistency across the board, placing in the top three in nearly every test. Its wet handling performance was unbeatable, taking first place in that category. On dry roads, it secured third in handling and fourth in braking, proving reliable on multiple surfaces. Snow and ice performance was steady, though it didn't lead in these areas. While it may not have dominated any single category, its well-rounded capabilities make it a dependable choice for drivers seeking stability and reliability year-round.

The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 was all about precision and control, leading the pack in dry handling and subjective wet handling. It came close to the top in wet braking, showing its strength on damp roads. Its performance was comparable to a summer tire, making it a great choice for those in milder climates. However, its weaknesses surfaced in snowy conditions, where it lagged behind in braking and traction, and the firmer ride and higher rolling resistance might not suit everyone. For those prioritizing dry and wet handling over winter grip, this tire hits the mark.

The Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ shined on wet roads, securing a solid second place in wet handling. Its dry performance was respectable, but braking distances were noticeably longer compared to the top performers. In snowy and icy conditions, it lagged behind, with traction and braking falling short of expectations. Despite this, it still outperformed summer tires in winter tests, making it a decent choice for milder climates. While it didn’t dominate, it held its own against big players, proving that Vredestein can deliver solid mid-range options.
