There's only 3 sport winter tires in this "sport" winter tires test (WinterSport 4D; UltraGrip 8 Performance & Sottozero 3)! The other (TS850; Alpin 4; WRD3...) are standard winter tires!
I totally agree. Performance winter tires can not compete with daily tires. There is no TS850 for 18" wheels for example. But there is 17" Ultragrip 8 (not Performance) and it's the competitor for TS850. Ultragrip 8 Performance competitor from Continental is TS830P. "P" indicates performance here.
This test is not objective!
