11th of 13 tires
  • Low rolling resistance.
  • Worst grip in the dry, wet and snow. Extremely long wet braking distances.
  • Last place was the cheap tire, its only redeeming quality was the price and the rolling resistance levels, but if you're looking for good levels of grip in the dry, wet or snow, maybe pick another tire from the results.
