2025 ADAC Winter Tire Test
The Point S Winter S receives only adequate ratings on dry roads and satisfactory on wet surfaces, but achieves good winter performance, though overall driving safety is rated as adequate due to dry road weaknesses. Despite good environmental performance, the overall judgment remains adequate. On dry roads, it shows poor precision and steering feedback requiring frequent corrections, with oversteering tendencies and adequate limit behavior, though braking distances are still good. On wet surfaces, it achieves good braking performance but only satisfactory ratings for aquaplaning resistance and handling due to moderate grip levels and poor force combination. In winter conditions, it just earns good ratings with good snow and ice braking plus snow traction, but narrowly misses good handling scores due to moderate grip and satisfactory reserves. This Slovakian-manufactured tire receives good environmental ratings with good mileage, low tire wear, and good efficiency thanks to low weight and fuel consumption.
