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 braking in feet (62 - 0 mph)
Lower is better ↓| Position / Tire | Result | Gap to best | Residual speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 135 ft | Best | 0 mph | |
| 135 ft | 0 ft | 4 mph | |
| 138 ft | +3 ft | 13 mph | |

| 141 ft | +6 ft | 17 mph | |
| 144 ft | +9 ft | 21 mph | |
| 145 ft | +10 ft | 22 mph |
The difference between best and worst was 7.8% (10 ft ≈ 0.7 Car Lengths). From 80 mph, the Barum Vanis 3 would still be travelling at 22 mph when the Nokian Cargoproof C had stopped.
Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.
