Following on from the 32 tire braking shootout, Auto Bild have taken the fourteen best all season tires to the full test, and included a summer and winter tire as reference.

As with the Tire Reviews all season test, Auto Bild have ranked the new Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 as the best all season tire, not because it was outstanding in one single area, but because it had a rounded performance in nearly all tests.

Auto Bild also tested the new Vredestein Quatrac, which replaces the Quatrac 5. This new tire performed excellently in the dry and wet tests, and had the best wear of the group, making the Vredestein Quatrac a very good tire for climates like the UK.

Auto Bild also found the Continental AllSeasonContact to be a well rounded tire, and the CrossClimate+ strong in the dry, but a little disappointing in the wet.

The updated Bridgestone Weather Control A005 EVO again struggled in the snow, which peanalised it more with the German score weighting than it did in the Tire Reviews test.

Auto Bild performed drum wear testing and while their mileage predictions seem somewhat optimistic, it's worth scrolling down to the wear section to see the results as it wasn't something Tire Reviews could test this year.

It's always nice when the data from two different tests, in difference sizes, performed in different conditions are similar, and this is what we have between the Auto Bild results, and our own. 

Dry

As usual, the summer reference tire had the advantage in dry braking, and the dry optimised Michelin CrossClimate+ was a close second.

Cost

The projected wear numbers seemed unusually high, with the new Vredestein reportedly being good for over 75,000kms!

While the numbers might be optimistic, we can focus on the overall order of the result to show us the new Vredestein and Goodyear beat the wear king Michelin, while the Bridgestone and Hankook struggle.

Calculating euros per 1000km gives us an overall cost for the tires life, where the cheaper tires can still be cost effective, even with lower projected wear.
