sufficient
Ranked #8 of 8
The Falken EuroWinter HS01 tire secured the final spot, finishing 8th out of 8 participants, and was given a final rating of 'Sufficient' in its evaluation. The tire showcased a commendable wet performance with exceptional aquaplaning safety but had slight shortcomings in cornering grip.

However, its performance was criticized for long braking distances, sluggish steering response, and limited grip on snow, along with noticeable noise when cornering. Despite these drawbacks, the tire stood out for its aquaplaning resistance in both cross and longitudinal tests, along with its handling on dry and wet surfaces, positioning it as the most economically priced option amongst its competitors.
