Category: Tires

Featured: BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS, Bridgestone Potenza RE-71RS, Falken Sincera SN250 A/S, Goodyear Assurance MaxLife, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive, Vredestein Ultrac Pro, Yokohama AVID Ascend LX

We understand that tire performance categories can be confusing. You want an all-season tire, but there are several all-season categories; how do you know which one is right for you? You want a summer tire, but again, which summer category? In this special demonstration we took six all-season tires from three all-season categories and three summer tires from two summer categories to lay it out for you. Category-leading tires from the Standard Touring All-Season, Grand Touring All-Season, Ultra High Performance All-Season, Max Performance Summer, and Extreme Performance Summer categories are tested so you can see exactly what each "step up" gets you as a driver and what trade-offs were made along the way.
