Comparison: Fulda SportControl 2 vs. Yokohama Advan Sport V107 vs. Uniroyal RainSport 5 vs. Barum Bravuris 5 HM
In this comparison, we will put two popular summer tyres, Fulda SportControl 2 and Yokohama Advan Sport V107 under the spotlight. These tyres have both been tested and scrutinized by various industry professionals. Let's see how they stack up against each other.
Fulda SportControl 2
The Fulda SportControl 2 is a summer tyre that scored 69% in our rating. The tyre has received good reviews, particularly for its balanced and safe handling capabilities on wet roads and its relatively low price. A few downfalls highlighted by the autobild 2019 test were its extended wet braking distances and slightly delayed steering response. This tyre took the 18th position among 50 tyres in the Autobild test. It is important to note that a newer model has not replaced this tyre.
Yokohama Advan Sport V107
On the other hand, we have the Yokohama Advan Sport V107. This summer tyre achieved a 59% rating in our tests. The tyre shines with its dynamic dry handling and short wet and dry braking distances. The tyre had limited longevity and its high price and high rolling resistance led to some downscaling in tests. Despite these issues, it managed an impressive 4th position among 50 tyres in the same Autobild test, indicating its superior performance on some key parameters.
Verdict
Overall, the results indicate that both tyres have their strengths and weaknesses. For dry conditions and superior handling, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is the tyre of choice. On the other hand, the Fulda SportControl 2 offers better value for money with competitive performance levels, particularly on wet roads.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that the choice between these two attractive offers should largely depend on your driving conditions and budget. It is advisable to consider professional advice and carefully read through other Fulda and Yokohama user reviews to make the best decision.
