Data updated
Which should you buy?
Choose the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 for the best all-round safety-especially in wet braking and aquaplaning-plus strong dry performance (a particularly smart pick for rain-prone regions and EV-style efficiency priorities). Choose the Kleber Quadraxer SUV if you regularly drive in snowy conditions and want stronger snow braking and potentially better value/wear, accepting weaker wet/dry composure compared with the Pirelli.
Where the Quadraxer SUV is stronger
- Strong snow braking in both shared tests (e.g., 23.4 m vs 25.2 m in 2025; 16.9 m vs 17.1 m in 2026)
- Winter-leaning behavior noted by testers: one of the strongest tires on snow with competitive traction/handling for its class focus
- Better value proposition in the 2026 test (11.34 vs 12.34 price/1000) and slightly longer projected wear (44,110 km vs 42,960 km)
Where the Cinturato All Season SF3 is stronger
- Consistently best head-to-head wet performance, including a large wet braking advantage in 2025 (43.94 m vs 48.76 m)
- Aquaplaning benchmark tendencies: stronger straight and curved aquaplaning in both tests (e.g., 81.15 vs 77.39 km/h straight aqua in 2025; 74.2 vs 70.3 km/h in 2026)
- Better dry-road safety and pace (shorter dry braking and higher dry handling speed in both tests: 35.6 m vs 37.3 m; 103.2 vs 101.3 km/h in 2025)

Wins count every measurement the shared tests recorded for both tires; a tick marks the tire ahead on that line. Subjective driver scores count as wins but are never averaged, because each test uses its own scale.
Head to head in 2 tests, 2025 to 2026
Each row is one published test in which both tires ran on the same car, in the same size, on the same day. The line is the whole field, winner on the left.

In each test the better of the two figures counts as 100% and the other as its share of it, so a 118 ft stop against 112 ft is 95%; each spoke averages the shared tests that recorded it. The scale stops at 95%: a point further in sits on the hub's edge, hollow. 2 measurements recorded in only one shared test are left off; every measurement is in the table further down.

Braking distances and lap times are better when lower; speeds, wear and grip figures when higher. A test's figures are its own: sizes, cars, surfaces and temperatures differ from one to the next, which is why the averages here are only ever of tests the two tires shared. "Scored" rows are subjective driver ratings: each test uses its own scale, so only the wins are counted.

Most owners rate the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 highly, with the bulk of feedback praising its dependable wet and dry grip (mentioned by over half of reviewers) and an easy, confidence-inspiring feel for year-round use. Around a third of owners also highlight strong snow traction for an all-season tire, alongside generally low road noise and good ride comfort. A small minority report vibration/balancing issues, while roughly one in six mention steering feel is a bit soft or less direct than sportier or summer-focused alternatives; aquaplaning feedback is more mixed.
- Strong wet grip and reassuring confidence in the rain
- High dry grip for an all-season tire
- Impressive snow traction for winter days
- Generally low road noise, especially at cruising speeds
- Vibration or balancing/run-out problems reported by some owners
- Steering feel can be a bit soft or less direct than alternatives
- Aquaplaning resistance gets mixed reports in standing water
Summarised by AI from 70 vetted reviews; the reviews themselves are on the tire page.
All 73 Cinturato All Season SF3 reviewsGreat tires! In autumn and winter conditions, I found them better than the Continental TS860 in mud and snow, but worse on ice.
In summer, compared with the Continental PremiumContact 6, they offered better aquaplaning resistance, but slightly worse wet grip and overall handling. Lateral stability was by far their weakest point compared with my old Conti.
These were my first all-season tires, a bit of a gamble for me, but overall, I would recommend them. After 40,000 km over two years, they are showing some wear, so I plan to replace them by 50,000 km to stay on the safe side. My original plan was to use them for 40,000–60,000 km and less than four years.

Reading the results
Written from the test results and owner reviews above. It is analysis, not a measurement: where it and the tables disagree, the tables are right.
This matchup pits two very different takes on the modern all-season tire against each other: the Kleber Quadraxer SUV, an SUV/4x4-oriented all-season with a clear winter bias, and the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3, a passenger-car touring all-season that's been scoring like a class benchmark in recent AutoBild testing. While they can appear in similar 18-inch crossover fitments in tests, their priorities are not identical-Kleber leans into snow security and value, while Pirelli aims to be the “do-everything” choice with a strong safety envelope in the wet.
Across two shared AutoBild tests (2025 Crossover/SUV all-season and 2026 EV all-season), the story is consistent: Pirelli repeatedly wins the warm/wet disciplines and aquaplaning, while Kleber's main counterpunch is snow braking (and in one test, comfort, wear and value). The key question for buyers is whether your real-world driving resembles a wet-and-mild climate with frequent standing water-or a colder region where getting stopped on snow matters most.
Conclusion
On objective performance, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 is the stronger all-rounder and the clear head-to-head winner: it finished 1st/12 in the 2025 test and 3rd/10 in the 2026 EV test, beating the Kleber (7th/12 and 5th/10) in every dry and wet metric reported across both tests. The most meaningful safety gap shows up in wet braking: 43.94 m vs 48.76 m in 2025 (about a 9.9% advantage to Pirelli), plus consistently better wet handling and stronger aquaplaning margins (e.g., 2.96 vs 2.68 m/s² curved aquaplaning in 2025, and 74.2 vs 70.3 km/h straight aquaplaning in 2026). If your priority is predictable grip in rain, standing water resistance, and strong braking on dry roads, the SF3 is the more confidence-inspiring choice.
The Kleber Quadraxer SUV earns its place if your use case is genuinely winter-leaning and budget-sensitive. It beat Pirelli in snow braking in both tests (16.9 m vs 17.1 m in 2026; 23.4 m vs 25.2 m in 2025), and it can also look compelling on ownership factors depending on the test: in 2026 it projected longer wear (44,110 km vs 42,960 km) and better value (11.34 vs 12.34 price/1000). The practical takeaway: choose Pirelli for the best “one tire for everything” safety profile-especially in wet conditions-while Kleber makes sense for drivers who regularly face snow and want strong winter stopping power without paying premium prices, accepting that wet/dry composure won't match the leaders.

Where this data comes from
Finishing positions and measurements are transcribed from each published test. A test only counts here when both tires ran in it, so every figure was recorded on the same car, size and day as the one it is compared to.
About the TR Score
The Tire Reviews Score rates each tire out of 10 from every independent test result and vetted owner review we hold, so two tires can be compared even before a test has run them together.
Who does the testing
Every test published as a Tire Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tires independently since 2007.
