The 2025 Autobild All Season tire braking shootout put 30 of the latest all season tires in the 'sporty' 225/40 R18 size through dry and wet braking tests.
As usual the top 15 from this test will go through to the full Autobild all season test which should be out in a few weeks.
The Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 was best in dry braking
The Vredestein Quatrac was impressive in wet braking, a meter ahead of the Continental in second place
The Michelin CrossClimate 3 Sport is better at slowing the car down than the CrossClimate 3 (we knew this from the Tire Reviews test)
The Linglong is legitimately good in the dry and wet (also known from the Tire Reviews test)
A tire named Roadhog was better than Toyo, Dunlop, Firestone, and BFGoodrich in wet and dry braking. It will be interesting to see how this budget tire performs in the full test.
We are very excited for the full test, make sure you check back soon!

Dunlop All Season 2( Dry Braking 42.5 M Wet Braking 49.2 M ) and Debica Navigator 3 (Dry Braking 44.1 M Wet Braking 56.4 M) look like exactly the same tire but give kind a different results. May be the tire compaund is different.
Hankook 4S2 would be correct. Another mistake: The Ceat is the new 4 SeasonDrive X5. Michelin CC3 looks bad in wet braking. I wouldn't buy it. As I wrote before, Michelin should be afraid of next Goodyear (Gen4).

Very likely a cheaper to produce compound in the debica.
Hmmm, strange. Linglong Grip Master 4S wet braking 47.5m in 2025 AutoBild test, was 59.8m in 2024 AutoBild test?!
