Read the measurements, not just the rank

Lower is better for braking distances and lap times; higher is better for subjective scores and aquaplaning speed. Bars start at zero. Read the gap alongside the position: adjacent tires can be separated by very different margins.

Positions and gaps always refer to the full test field within each group. Selecting tires does not recalculate rankings or change the best-in-test benchmark.

Dry

Dry Braking
Position / Tire	Result	Gap to best	Residual speed
1Michelin CrossClimate 2	128 ft	Best	0 mph
2Nokian Seasonproof 2	136 ft	+8 ft	20 mph
2Sunny NC501	136 ft	+8 ft	20 mph
4Debica Navigator 3	142 ft	+14 ft	26 mph
5Vredestein Quatrac Pro+	144 ft	+16 ft	27 mph
6Kumho Solus 4S HA32+	147 ft	+19 ft	29 mph

The difference between best and worst was 15.2% (19 ft ≈ 1.3 Car Lengths). From 80 mph, the Kumho Solus 4S HA32+ would still be travelling at 29 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.
