Performance Analysis
Drawn from 4 tests. Updated October 28, 2026.
The Ovation W 586 finished below the middle of the field in four Auto Bild winter tire overviews. It placed 27th of 49 in the 2014 50 Winter Tire Braking Overview, 27th of 51 in the 2015 Winter Tire Market Overview and 28th of 49 in the 2016 Winter Tire Market Overview. These were broadly similar outcomes in large fields, with no result in the leading group.
Its 34th place out of 50 in the 2017 50 Winter Tire Shoot Out was weaker again. That event began with wet braking for all entrants, with only the top thirty progressing to snow braking and the top twenty to the full winter test. The history establishes a below-midfield overall record, but contains no individual stopping distances, handling results, awards or written tester verdicts for this tire. It therefore does not establish a particular strength or allow the overall positions to be assigned to a specific weakness.
