Comparison: Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance vs. Nokian WetProof vs. Bridgestone Turanza T005

3 mutual test(s) with detailed data

In this comparison, we will be looking at two summer tyres: the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance and the Nokian WetProof. These tyres have been tested in various conditions to determine their strengths and weaknesses.


The Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance is rated at 88% by our experts and is manufactured in Slovenia. It has since been replaced by the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2. Known for its excellent dry handling, the Efficient Grip Performance offers great fuel efficiency with low rolling resistance. In the Autoklub ČR test, this tyre ranked 8th out of 19, with dry handling being its best feature. In the ACE test, it ranked 6th out of 9, excelling in dry handling, wet handling, and rolling resistance categories. Finally, in the AutoMotorSport test, it secured the 4th position out of 11, standing out for its aquaplaning resistance and wet handling.


On the other hand, the Nokian WetProof is rated at 87% by our experts and is produced in Finland. This tyre has not been replaced by a newer model as of now. Its standout features include exceptional wet handling capabilities and low exterior noise levels. In the Autoklub ČR test, the WetProof ranked 6th out of 19 tyres, excelling in exterior noise reduction. The tyre secured 1st position in both the ACE and AutoMotorSport tests. In the ACE test, it outshined others in wet braking, wet handling, and exterior noise categories. Similarly, in the AutoMotorSport test, it dominated in dry braking, dry handling, dry lane changing, exterior noise, and wet braking categories.


Comparing both tyres, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance generally performs better in dry conditions, particularly in handling and rolling resistance. However, it seems to have been outperformed by the Nokian WetProof in tests that focused on wet conditions and exterior noise levels.


In conclusion, if you prioritize dry handling, fuel efficiency, and overall performance, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance is an excellent choice, especially considering its updated version, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2. However, if wet handling capabilities and low exterior noise are more important to you, then the Nokian WetProof would be your ideal choice.
