The 2024 Promobil camper van / motorhome all season tire test has tested eight of the best all season tires using a VW Transporter Van (T6.1) fitted out as a camper. The test looked at how these tires perform in various conditions, including snow, wet, and dry roads. Key aspects such as braking distances, traction, and handling were examined to understand each tire's capabilities.
As most tire tests are conducted using a regular vehicle, this test provides insights into the performance of all-season tires on a campervan style platform. Fortunately, not much has changed, with the all season tires you'd expect to work well on a car also working well on a van style motorhome, with the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 and Michelin CrossClimate 2 leading the way.
The surprise of the test was the Giti GitiAllSeason AS1 SUV placing third, ahead of Pirelli, Falken and Vredestein. This is an impressive result for the quickly improving brand, and as the cheapest tire on test it offers some real value.
The final thing to note is that Promobil did not include the Falken EuroAllSeason AS220 Pro in the final results as they tested a pre-production version and at time of publication had not verified the results with retail tires. As the result is around where this tire should be finishing, we have databased it in the overall results.

Dry
As we've come to expect from all season tire tests, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 had a big advantage in dry braking.
Dry Braking
Dry braking in feet (62 - 0 mph)
Lower is better ↓| Position / Tire | Result | Gap to best | Residual speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 134 ft | Best | 0 mph | |
| 143 ft | +9 ft | 21 mph | |
| 146 ft | +12 ft | 24 mph | |
| 153 ft | +19 ft | 28 mph | |
| 154 ft | +20 ft | 29 mph | |
| 157 ft | +23 ft | 31 mph | |
| 162 ft | +28 ft | 34 mph | |
| 168 ft | +34 ft | 36 mph |
The difference between best and worst was 26% (34 ft ≈ 2.4 Car Lengths). From 80 mph, the Uniroyal AllSeasonExpert 2 would still be travelling at 36 mph when the Michelin CrossClimate 2 had stopped.
Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.
The Giti GitiAllSeason AS1 SUV took a surprise win in dry handling, with the new Falken also placing well.
