    They tires were tested on Bridgestone's own test track. Might that have given them a slight advantage I wonder?
    I was hoping for a better result from Falken, they are my usual Go-to midrange brand.

      It certainly could have but any home advantage is usually extremely small! And yes agreed on Falken, I'd waiting to see more tests though before I worry

      Falken aren't made in Japan any more.... this is for me the major reason for this results...

    Thanks for the test results :)

    The Bridgestone had in thenear past also very good results, so the victory isn´t surprising. The Goodyear confirms the good results from your test. The Maxxis is a surprise but I´m not sure how good the balance is. IIRC some Maxxis tires with good grip levels had a bad tread life.

    The new Falken is a bit disappointing IMHO. Behind the "old" Hankook, maybe the good aquaplaning resistance contorted the wet skills.
