satisfactory
Ranked #16 of 20
The Semperit Speed-Grip 5 secured the 16th position out of 20 competitors, earning a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' It stood out for its impressive winter capabilities and good handling on dry surfaces, alongside a remarkably high mileage. However, its performance was compromised by inadequate lateral grip on wet surfaces and extended braking distances on dry roads. This blend of strengths and weaknesses provides a nuanced perspective on its overall winter utility and driving safety.
