The BEST Performance Summer Tires for 2026 Tested!
1st/8
235/35 R19 • 2026
Best in test for dry grip and also quickest in the wet, with very confidence-inspiring handling limits.
Not one of the best on efficiency and only mid-pack for comfort compared to the quietest tires.
The new Prelli P Zero R takes an impressive win overall. I don't really know where to begin with this tire. Best in dry braking, best in dry handling beating the Cup 2, best in wet handling, very close to best in wet braking. It's crazy.
If you told me at the start of the test that one tire would beat the Cup 2 in the dry and the same tire would beat the Continental in the wet, I wouldn't have believed you, but here we are.
It certainly wasn't the most comfortable and it doesn't have the lowest rolling resistance but I really don't care. This tire is awesome and I would like to fit it to everything I own; which brings me to the biggest issue with it, the size range. I think there's currently only 3 non-OE sizes, so if you are one of the blessed ones, do it, and if you're not, I've been told there are more coming very soon.

Why is there no reviews or data on this new tire? It's a new top end tire from a leading brand being fitted to lots of fast new cars including all the new 911s. I'd imagine it should be as good if not better than the Michelin Cup 2?
I have actually tested it and yes it is very very good. Test will be out next year but currently it's my new favourite tire. Note, I tested the aftermarket (non-oe) version.

I have these on my Taycan Turbo GT. 265/35 21 front 305/30 21 rear. This is the second heaviest performance car I own, behind a Panamera Turbo S E-hybrid. My biggest shock is how long they have lasted. I hammer them. The fronts are losing a little butt quicker than the rears (perhaps undersized to increase range) and they can slide about a bit when cold. These things look like they might go 12,000 miles! They need some heat for a proper launch but again with the amount of burnouts I've done on them I'm simply shocked at their longevity.
