sufficient
Ranked #9 of 11
9 out of 11 competitors — final rating 'Sufficient'. The Falken Eurowinter HS02 Pro proved to be one of the quietest tyres externally, showed real snow capability and maintained good performance on dry roads at a budget-friendly price, but delivered noticeably weaker results on wet surfaces, particularly for aquaplaning resistance and braking; it did not finish last in any measured property.

good
Ranked #8 of 10
Finishing 8th out of 10 competitors, the Falken Eurowinter HS02 Pro achieved a final rating of 'Good.' It demonstrated decent braking and cornering grip on wet and dry roads, along with good ride comfort. However, its performance was hindered by unbalanced driving dynamics, sluggish steering response, sensitivity to load changes, and a tendency to oversteer on both snow and wet surfaces. Despite these flaws, the tyre managed to maintain a satisfactory overall performance.
