Excellent dry and wet grip. Snow is ok for the tire it is, but you should not depend on this tire to get you there once any measurable snow is on the ground. Road noise is ok and wear is pretty good. I don't make it to the 50k warranty, but it is nice that they discount my next set when I don't. This is my second set of AS4's. I MIGHT look at the DWS 6 next time just because of the better snow traction, but overall I am very happy with these tires.

What is a Ultra High Performance tire?
Ultra High Performance tires are the enthusiast's road tire - the fitment for hot hatches, performance saloons and fast estates. They prioritize steering response and grip, accepting a little more noise and wear than a touring tire.
All Season tires compromise between summer and winter ability so one set can stay on the car all year. In moderate climates a good all season tire is a genuinely strong choice; in hard winters or hot summers a dedicated tire still does the job better.
Professional tests of All Season Ultra High Performance Tires
Every published comparison test of this category we have indexed - 14 in total, newest first. Test results feed directly into the TR Scores above.

A tire needs at least 3 owner reviews to appear here. Owner ratings reward different things to tests - comfort, wear and value show up over thousands of miles, not on a test track.
What drivers say about All Season Ultra High Performance Tires
The most recent owner reviews from this category, in their own words.
They are decent tire, not top of class from what I can tell. I do like that they are fairly comfortable on the road as far as noise and harshness. The weight and power of the MachE GT can overpower them pretty easy if really giving it the beans. They give me confidence in the rain and haven't had any issues there.
Good wear too, making sure I rotate at 10k miles.
These tires are great. I researched for months trying to get as much data as possible about them. The tread design is very similar to the now defunct Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+. But these are way more comfortable than any Michelin Pilot Sport model. I also used to have the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500, and those heat cycled and aged out before I could wear out the tread. The Firestones albeit older technology had the grip of an all season if I’m being honest. I got them from a guy off Facebook marketplace for cheap, so it was worth it.
However these Falkens are a different story. I can feel the rear end of my car “track” into a turn better. Kinda like my old Continental EC DW (v1). Of course since they are new they will feel better than my old tires. I don’t commute far so I never wear out my tread. So the Falken’s make the sensible purchase. I can’t comment on their performance in rain or sow bc it’s been nothing by an everlasting hot summer here in SoCal in 2026.
Sharp handling, quiet, and comfortable. Develop flat spots after parking for a few days, gone after 10 mintues of driving.
Fitted on my Golf 7.5 GTI Performance as a replacement for a winter tire (Zagreb, Croatia - there hasn't been much snow in a couple of years, only wet conditions).
So far so good - only down side for now is noise. They are louder than most of the tires I have driven on. Speaking as someone who has Bridgestone Potenza Evo Sport summer time.
Feedback on the steering wheel is good, sharp.
Looks good on the car with their sporty side wall.
I will get back on this review after this winter and some snow potential.
Drove them on a 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman S all4 for about 20000 miles and then on a 2022 Mini Cooper Countryman all4 JCW for around 10000 miles. I felt the tires were excellent in the wet even when pushing the vehicles hard on the thruway. Good in the dry, nice handling in wet and dry. Just an overall excellent tire.Never used them in winter weather I used winter tires for that.
A very satisfying tire in most regards, though comfort is mediocre.
Grip and handling have been satisfactory. Tread life is very disappointing. With 2 1/2 years and less than 23,000 miles the tread wear indicators on the front tires hit 3/32nd and the rear 5/32nd. The tires were only driven 22,421 miles over 2 1/2 years. I would not consider purchasing this brand again.
I was previously using CrossClimate, and I had to change my tire in an unexpected place. I managed to find this one there. Overall, it's not bad for the price, but there's one thing: even though it has tread depth now, the deformations on the tire surface are causing the car to be unbalanced. I can understand quick wear or less grip on the road, but having balance issues due to surface deformations is something I can't accept for a brand like Goodyear.
All Season Ultra High Performance Tires EU label data
14 of the 66 tires in this category carry EU label data. These are the category's label headliners, using each tire's best available size figures.
A Best wet grip
6 tires reach EU wet grip class A. The highest scoring:
A Lowest rolling resistance
The most fuel efficient choice: 4 tires reach rolling resistance class A. The highest scoring:
68dB Quietest tires
The quietest tires in this category are labelled from 68 dB external noise:
Label values come from the EU EPREL database and vary by size - the figures here are each tire's best declared size. Wet grip and rolling resistance run from class A (best) to E; noise is the measured drive-by figure. A good label is a floor, not a verdict: the tests and rankings above tell you far more.
New All Season Ultra High Performance Tires
The newest arrival in the category is the Vredestein Quatrac Pro 2. 4 tires have joined in the last two years:
| Tire | On the market since | TR Score |
|---|---|---|
| Vredestein Quatrac Pro 2 | 2026 | 9.4 |
| Landsail RapidDragon RD3 AS | 2025 | not yet scored |
| Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 | 2025 | 9.4 |
| Michelin CrossClimate 3 Sport | 2025 | 9.6 |
New tires take time to earn a TR Score - tests have to be run and owner reviews have to arrive. A missing score is a data gap, not a verdict.
