good
Ranked #7 of 20
7 out of 20, final rating: 'Good'. A low-rolling tyre with balanced handling on snow and dry surfaces, it impresses with ride comfort and strong cross-aquaplaning performance, but braking on wet feels slightly delayed and requires a bit more distance; it did not finish last in any measured property.
