Expert summary
Continental did it again with the PremiumContact 7. It’s an incredibly well balanced tire with just the right wet and dry grip and above average mileage. Since it’s launch in 2023 it got nothing but the best results in the tests, the only downside being it’s premium price.

Our favorite every-day performance tyre that delivers fast laps on dry circuits while being safe for the daily commute, having won multiple tests in wet conditions. However, if you lean more towards comfort and low rolling resistance, the PremiumContact 7 might be a better choice.

Price from£303
Expert summary
A dry-road specialist with track-day ambitions. The Supersport delivers incredible dry grip and handling precision, but it pays for that with weak wet performance, high noise, and the worst rolling resistance in test. A tyre for sunny weekends, not rainy commutes.

Expert summary
Hankook tyres are getting better with every new generation and the Ventus Evo is the latest evolution. It aims for the stars with excellent dry and wet handling, best-in-test wet braking and top aquaplaning speed, while producing very low exterior noise. The only notable weakness is higher rolling resistance. Still, it is a premium tyre for slightly less than a premium price.

Did you know ...?

315/35 R21 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for summer tyres - there are 2 tyre models available, which can be compared to 155/60 R15, 170/60 R17, 160/60 R14. Let's break down the sizing - 35 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 35% of the tyre width (315mm), which means the sidewall height has 110.25 mm. The wheel diameter is R21, which means it fits to a 21 inch/533.4mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 2368.45 mm, which is very similar to 275/40 R21(2366.88 mm), 245/50 R20(2365.62 mm), 275/45 R20(2373.47 mm), 265/70 R15(2362.48 mm), 245/60 R18(2359.96 mm), 245/65 R17(2357.14 mm), 285/35 R22(2382.27 mm). There are multiple speed indexes available for summer tyres in 315/35 R21: W(270km/h), Y(300km/h). The same goes for weight indexes: 107, 111, 114.
