Strengths and weaknesses


Continental AllSeasonContact 2 (87%) — strengths:
excellent wet handling, confident dry handling, strong snow traction, low rolling resistance and low exterior noise. Test summaries repeatedly highlight its balanced "multitalent" character and short braking distances on wet and snowy roads. Weaknesses are minor: slightly higher price and a small tendency to understeer under very sporty inputs. Overall, tests place Continental consistently on the podium, making it the safer choice for mixed conditions and high mileage drivers. Manufacturer: Continental.


Kleber Quadraxer 3 (83%) — strengths:
very good snow performance, comfortable ride and secure aquaplaning resistance in longitudinal tests. Several test reports praise its winter aptitude and dry braking performance. Weaknesses: delayed steering response and a tendency toward understeer in wet handling, with slightly compromised dynamic behavior on slick surfaces. In comparative rankings Kleber repeatedly finishes a few places behind Continental, offering strong value but not quite the same all-round refined performance.


Summary of mutual test positions


Across the major tests cited, the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 consistently ranks higher than the Kleber Quadraxer 3 (2nd–3rd place vs 7th). That gap reflects Continental’s superior wet and dry dynamics, quieter operation and better rolling resistance — all features that influence overall test scores and real-world comfort and fuel efficiency.


Verdict — which tyre should you choose?


If you prioritise a top-ranked, balanced all-season tyre with excellent wet and snow braking, low noise and good fuel economy, the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 is the better tested option and the recommended pick for drivers wanting premium, consistent performance.


If budget and focused winter capability (strong snow traction and comfortable ride) are your main concerns, the Kleber Quadraxer 3 remains a very good value choice — it handles snow and aquaplaning well but concedes some wet handling finesse and steering responsiveness to Continental. Manufacturer: Kleber.


Bottom line: Continental leads in overall test positions and balanced performance; Kleber is an attractive, capable alternative with particular strengths on snow and comfort.
