Following our evaluation, we have given Firestone Roadhawk a 72% rating. One of its standout features is its excellent handling on both dry and wet surfaces, as echoed in Autobild's test. Firestone tyre also shone in the ACE test in terms of rolling resistance. However, multiple tests highlighted weaknesses on wet surfaces and...a slightly higher tyre noise.

Given the superior performance on dry and wet surfaces and its efficiency, it can be concluded that Firestone Roadhawk is a reliable tyre for summer use.


Considering the Kleber Dynaxer HP4, our rating stands at 82%. This tyre impresses with good environmental balance, lifespan, tread wear and efficiency as reflected in the autobild 2024 test. While its performance on dry surfaces and exterior noise levels were its strongest suits in the Autobild tests. It stands ahead of the Firestone Roadhawk with the 11th position in the ADAC tyre test, compared to Firestone's 17th place. However, the tyre's performance took a hit on wet surfaces, according to autobild 2024 and adac 2021. Hence, if you prioritize comfort, exterior noise, and better performance on dry surfaces, the Kleber Dynaxer HP4 can be a good choice.

However, the overall tests results indicate that the Kleber Dynaxer HP4 might outshine its competitor.
