We really like when a budget tyre surprises the testers — it is always a good story, but unfortunately it happens like once in a few years. The Giti GitiSport S2+ is one of those stories. It delivered confident handling and reliable braking on both wet and dry surfaces, holding its own against more expensive rivals. Comfort and rolling resistance are where the savings show, but for the price, it is hard to complain.
GitiSport S2+ showed competitive dry and wet results in AutoBild's 2026 245/45 R19 test, with longitudinal aquaplaning matching the best recorded score.

The same AutoBild data shows stronger value and noise performance than rolling resistance, with all values normalized against the best category result.
Where each model sits, what it is tuned for, and how the models trade off
Giti's own-brand passenger range runs from the Sparco-developed GitiSport ultra-high-performance line down to the GitiSynergy touring and eco-EV families, putting grip first at the sporty end and rolling resistance, mileage and quietness first at the comfort end.
