SEAT Leon 5F1 1.4 TSI Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 3 given 80% (205-55-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 2000 spirited miles
I bought this tire as a replacement for a Semperit Speed Grip 3 and can so far only say positive things about it.
In live in Austria, so we have a good chance of snowy conditions and in fact that what happened right now. In snow and sow muddy conditions this tire is really excellent and I have all levels of grip I expect. It is also very nice to drive and - very important - predictable. This is also the biggest difference to the Semperit, which often left me uncomfortable in the snow as the car would slide and loose grip randomly. So the Goodyear is really great in those circumstances.
In the wet and dry I experience it more close to the Semperit, which is also not a bad thing as it was a good tire in those conditions. I was only hoping for it to be a little more sporty.
Can't tell about wear so far.
Comfort levels are OK ... again in the range of the Semperit.
So in a nutshell it feels like the Semperit with much better levels of grip in the snow and slightly better grip in the wet. I was still hoping for a little more separation between the two given the Semperit is considerably cheaper and 5 years older, but the Goodyear is definitely an upgrade and I consider it a.good buy.

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 given 93% (225-40-18-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 5320 spirited miles
It feels like a new car, the previous tires were Bridgstone Potenza S001 and the PS5 is so much better in almost every way. The handling is not as good, but the rest makes up for it. The tires are almost impossible to spin up. To me they manage the perfect balance between highway and country road driving and sprited driving. When there are some curves the car is fun to drive but on longer trips it doesnt get annoying.

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza S001 given 49% (225-40-18-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 5000 average miles
The wear rate in the beginning is pretty significant, i bought the car used, so i cant provide exact rates, but the rate slows down as the tire gets older. But it also gets way worse, the wet traction is horror. The dry performance is pretty good and the handling is quite nice, but that is to the expense of comfort. You can really feel any bump in the road and it ruins the experiance on longer drives in my Seat Leon FR from 2018.
