Michelin Primacy 5
The previous model was already a good, economy-focused model and the Primacy 5 is expected to take it even further with 18% better mileage. But Michelin said also the wet performance is improved, which is something we are looking forward to see in the tests.

Kumho Ecsta HS52
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.

Bridgestone Turanza 6
The Turanza 6 is quite a new addition to Bridgestone’s lineup, being introduced in 2023. Featuring the new ENLITEN technology, it should be lighter and have positive effect on fuel efficiency. In the tests, the efficiency is confirmed alongside with higher mileage. That being said, it somehow lacks the performance of other premium tyres, so we would recommend it only when the price is lower.

Hankook Ventus Prime 4
Ventus Prime 4 Is our favorite every day tyre, as it offers premium safety at an affordable price. Short braking distances, good handling, but slightly worse at aquaplaning and comfort.

A very cheap tyre made in Europe with sufficient grip, but very short life. Not sporty. Good for people that don't drive just occasionally.

Kleber Dynaxer HP4
The Dynaxer HP4 is a balanced tyre, but some of the tests criticize it's worse mileage and wet performance. For a lower price, it could be a good option.

Dunlop Sport BluResponse
The BluResponse has been with us for many years now, but it still stands as a very decent tire. The price is usually acceptable and it's only major downside when compared to newer tires is lower mileage.

BFGoodrich Advantage
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.

Did you know ...?
195/55 R16 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for summer tyres - there are 106 tyre models available, which can be compared to 185/65 R15, 175/65 R14, 225/45 R17. Let's break down the sizing - 55 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 55% of the tyre width (195mm), which means the sidewall height has 107.25 mm. The wheel diameter is R16, which means it fits to a 16 inch/406.4mm diameter wheel.
