Today, we are comparing two popular summer tyres, the Matador MP47 Hectorra 3 and the Firestone Roadhawk. These tyres are produced by renowned tyre manufacturers, Matador and Firestone, respectively.
The Matador MP47 Hectorra 3 comes with an overall rating of 44%. In the Autobild test, it secured the 36th position out of 53 tyres. While the tyre's performance was found to be weaker on wet and particularly on dry surfaces, its strength lies in its relatively low fuel consumption. In the ADAC tests, the Matador tyre held the 16th position out of 16 tested tyres. The main strength attributed to this tyre is its low interior noise making it comfortable for long rides.
On the other hand, the Firestone Roadhawk has an overall rating of 59%. It significantly outperformed the Matador MP47 in the Autobild test securing the 13th position. Its best features according to ADAC tests are dry braking and wet circle cornering. However, the Firestone Roadhawk displayed some weaknesses in handling wet surfaces and was noted as the noisiest tyre in the test. Regardless of these, the tyre proved to be hard-wearing with minimal wear and tear exhibited during the tests.
In the direct comparison between these two, the Firestone Roadhawk performed better in most of the tests. While the Matador MP47 Hectorra 3's main strength is low interior noise, the Firestone Roadhawk demonstrated excellent dry braking and cornering performance. However, potential buyers may want to consider the trade-off between performance and noise levels.
In conclusion, the Firestone Roadhawk appears to be the more desirable option due to its higher ranking and more notable strengths like good dry surface performance and relatively lower wear. Both tyres reflect the quality of their Matador and Firestone makers, offering durability and dependability. However, potential buyers are advised to consider their specific needs and driving conditions before making a final decision.
