For the 2021 autumn season, Auto Bild have tested thirty two all season tires in the popular 225/50 R17 size in dry and wet braking.
The top sixteen of these tires will feature in the full Auto Bild all season tire test which will be on the site in the next few days.
For now, check out all the other latest all season tire tests on Tire Reviews !
Dry The leading all season tire in the dry shouldn't be a surprise, it was the Michelin CrossClimate 2! Maxxis also out performed the pack, with the Premitra All Season beating the third placed Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 by nearly 2 meters.
The difference between the best and the worst tire was nearly 10 meters from just 100 km/h or 62 mph.
Wet The 22c test temperature helped the summer tire to lead in wet conditions, with the Vredestein Quatrac Pro and Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 the best of the rest. The difference between best and worst was 13.7 meters, again from just 100 km/h.
