Expert summary

100 out of 100 in rolling resistance, mileage, and EV suitability — the e.Primacy is in a class of its own when it comes to efficiency. It's also one of the quietest tyres you can buy. Just know that braking and wet cornering are average at best. A tyre for maximising range, not fun.

Expert summary

Being usually one of the cheaper tyres in the test, the japanese Falken still delivers very safe characteristics for everyday driving. It suffers a bit in the efficiency department, with higher rolling resistance and limited mileage.

Expert summary

A quiet, comfortable all-rounder at a competitive price. The Proxes Comfort delivers solid dry braking and balanced handling across conditions. It won't excel in aquaplaning or mileage, but it covers the basics well and keeps the cabin quiet.

Expert summary

The HS52 is one of our favorite tires, as the South Korean manufacturer packed a very good performance characteristics with super affordable price. And the best part is that the mileage isn’t compromised, which is usually the case with similar tyres.

Expert summary

The BFGoodrich Advantage is here to offer you a bargain—but it doesn't impress much beyond that. It has decent dry handling and provides a quiet ride with low rolling resistance, but performance on wet surfaces leaves much to be desired. If you're looking for an affordable option and are willing to compromise on wet grip and overall performance, it might still be worth considering. Expect satisfactory comfort but manage your expectations elsewhere.
