    is this a joke? quatrac 3 won the 2011. in 2013 they've scored lower? same category and out of blue the BSa001's and GY4s are better?

      Tire technology moves on all the time, even if tire names don't. This year (2014), the Quatrac Lite comes 3rd, behind Pirelli and Goodyear.

      We'll have that published soon.

    Why no Pirelli tires

    Odd analysis. The winning tire is the Falken. That is quite clear from the data. Factor in price (the Falken is, on my research, about 25% cheaper than the inferior Goodyear) and it is beyond any argument. Am I missing something?

      Auto Bid use score weighting, which means our simple totalling doesn't always give an accurate impression.

    I wished I had read this before! I just brought some nexen n priz 4s as the eu label is quite good compared to other tires plus it was good value!

    The treadpattern is exactly the same! Althought the compound might be different...

    Isn't the all-season Falken Euroall Season As200 identical to the discontinued winter tire Falken Eurowinter HS439 (at least tread-pattern-wise)? I actually happened to use that tire in the winter between 2010 & 2012 and it seemed more of an all-season tire, as it was very quiet and with good characteristics on dry and wet tarmac, average on compacted snow but of noticeably limited pulling power in deep, fresh snow.

      Interesting point Adam, we'll ask Falken!

      Compare Bridgestone A001 with Bridgestone LM-25/LM-20. Same situation.

    Do you know what kind of winter tire was used? I think it's quite important, especially when it got beaten by a all-season tire.

      Unfortunately this isn't something Auto Bild publish :(
