exemplary
Ranked #3 of 20

Finishing 3rd out of 20 competitors, the Semperit Speed-Grip 5 demonstrated remarkable performance, earning a final rating of 'Exemplary'. Praised for its affordability and consistently good performance across a range of weather conditions, this second-tier brand excelled particularly in price/value and snow braking. The tyre offers very high mileage and has a low rolling resistance, making it a wise choice for cost-conscious consumers seeking reliability in winter conditions. However, it does exhibit slightly reduced grip on wet roads, which might be a consideration for some drivers.
