When comparing the Kleber Quadraxer 3 and the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen‑3 the test data shows two well‑rated all‑season tyres (both scored 81% in our aggregated rating) but with different performance profiles. Below is a concise, SEO‑focused summary of their test results, strengths and weaknesses, and which tyre comes out ahead overall.

Overview from multiple tests
Across Autobild (2022–2025), TyreReviews and other lab/real‑world checks, the Vector 4Seasons Gen‑3 repeatedly finished at or near the top (including a position 1 in an Autobild test of 15 tyres and several top‑6 finishes in larger test fields). The Kleber Quadraxer 3 typically placed slightly lower (positions such as 4/15 and 7/37 in Autobild tests) but was consistently praised for winter capability and comfort.

Strengths — Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen‑3
The Vector Gen‑3 is a true all‑rounder: tests highlight excellent wet handling and short wet braking distances, very good dry handling and steering precision, strong snow traction and high mileage. Reviews also note low rolling resistance and top comfort among rivals. These balanced characteristics make it the frequent test winner and the safer pick in mixed wet/snow conditions. Manufacturer page: Goodyear (manufacturer).

Weaknesses — Goodyear
Some tests flag longer dry braking distances and slightly elevated road noise in specific sizes/conditions. A few test summaries also noted marginally higher rolling resistance in certain runs, though overall economy is still very good.

Strengths — Kleber Quadraxer 3
Kleber’s Quadraxer 3 is frequently described as a snow specialist with winter‑tyre‑level traction — excellent snow braking, handling and cornering — while also delivering short dry braking distances and very good aquaplaning reserves. Comfort and low noise are recurring positive points, and the tyre represents a strong value proposition for drivers prioritising winter grip and ride comfort. Manufacturer page: Kleber (manufacturer).

Weaknesses — Kleber
Weaknesses center on wet‑road behaviour: tests consistently mention understeer and delayed steering response on wet surfaces, which led to penalty points in some rankings. While dry performance is good, Kleber can be less dynamic in mixed wet/dry conditions compared with the Goodyear.

Head‑to‑head test positions and verdict
Although both tyres share the same aggregated score (81%), the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen‑3 takes the edge in head‑to‑head test placements — more podiums and a number of test wins — thanks to superior wet performance and overall balance. The Kleber Quadraxer 3 shines where expected: snow, comfort and dry braking, making it an excellent choice if winter performance and value are priorities.

Conclusion
If you want the most consistently high placing across mixed conditions, choose the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen‑3 for its balanced wet/dry/snow performance and frequent top results. If your priority is winter traction, ride comfort and a competitive price, the Kleber Quadraxer 3 is a compelling alternative. Neither model has been replaced in our database at the time of review.
