Performance Analysis

Linglong Grip Master 4S - Official Image

The Linglong Grip Master 4S shows a split profile: competitive dry braking with one standout overall result in a large-field braking shootout, but consistently weak wet performance across multiple tests. It delivers respectable noise and value metrics, and mid-pack wear/abrasion, yet suffers from poor rolling resistance and fuel economy. Overall, its strengths are situational and overshadowed by broad wet-weather shortcomings.
Across 2023-2025 tests, dry braking ranges from upper-mid to strong, including 3rd place in a 30-tire 2025 shootout. Conversely, wet braking and aquaplaning repeatedly place near the back, with substantial percentage gaps to the best. Snow performance is largely lower-mid. Efficiency is a notable weakness, led by last place in rolling resistance. Awards are absent, and average positions skew below mid-pack.
