The 2019 Auto Bild AllRad SUV tire test tested ten 225/55 R17 tire patterns using BMW X3, covering dry, wet, gravel, mud and grass performance!

As with other tests in 2019, the gap between the best and worst tires on test is getting ever smaller, and while the new Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 took another win, three tires were awarded the second place slot!

The Continental PremiumContact 6, Hankook Ventus Prime 3 and Nokian PowerProof all were deemed "exemplary" buy Auto Bild, with each tire having a slightly different balance of performance overall, but all equally as recommended.

This is a data heavy test so full information can be found below, but it's worth noting nearly any of the top six placed tires would be excellent purchases in 2019. Check the results from each test carefully, and decide which tire best suits your own personal requirements.

Dry

The Continental PremiumContact 6 proved to be the best in the dry, placing top in the dry braking and dry handling tests. The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 placed a close second, with the Hankook third overall.

All the tires in the Dry Handling test finished less than 3% apart.

Wet

In the wet the Goodyear proved to be the best tire, but the Nokian Powerproof was excellent during the wet handling test.

Off-road

Off-road testing is extremely difficult to conduct, and the results of these tests seemed to show no real trends.

The Nokian Powerproof was fastest during gravel handling, but only eighth overall for gravel traction, while the winning Hankook in the gravel traction test was slowest round the gravel handling lap!

Environment

As proven before, the Bridgestone Turanza T005 has extremely low rolling resistance.

10Nexen N Fera RU1	10.24 kg/t	+2.68 kg/t	$104

The difference between best and worst was 35.4% (2.68 kg / t). Over 12,000 miles a year at $3.60/gal, the Nexen N Fera RU1 uses about 29 gal ($104) more fuel than the Bridgestone Turanza T005.

Estimates based on typical driving conditions. Rolling resistance accounts for approximately 20% of IC vehicle fuel consumption and 25% of EV energy consumption. Actual savings vary based on driving style, vehicle weight, road conditions, and tire age. For comparative purposes only. Lifetime savings based on a 40,000km / 25,000 mile tread life.

The budget CST proved to be the quietest tire on test, with the Hankook also scoring well.

Hey guys, I wanna buy tires for my crossover (255/45/R20) and have three options:
Nexen nfera Supreme (N5000 Platinum) : $175 each,
Nankang SP-9 Cross-Sport : $115,
Giti Sport S2 SUV :$125
\
which will provide more comfort and smooth driving experience?

Any opinion on the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV? Considering that the normal pilot sport 4 wins every test (beating the normal Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3/5 and Continental Premium Contact 6) we can assume that the SUV variant is AT LEAST just as good as the First and Second place in this test? especially if one uses the car 99% of the time on the road

  I'm actually in portugal on the launch of the tire now, not driven it yet but it will certainly be up there with the Asymmetric 5.
