AvD: All-Season Tire Test R16 2026
A major test by Germany's Automobilclub von Deutschland (AvD) of ten all-season tires in size 205/55 R16 reveals a clear hierarchy. Premium models from Continental, Bridgestone, and Goodyear lead the pack, with the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 securing the overall victory for its balanced and secure handling in dry, wet, and snowy conditions.
The evaluation, weighted 80% for dry/wet performance and 20% for snow, identified a distinct best-value winner, offering near-top-tier performance at a significantly lower price point. The results confirm that while modern all-season tires are a competent year-round solution, premium investments deliver superior safety-critical performance.
