Today we're comparing two popular summer tyres, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 and the Avon ZV7. Let's look at how they performed in our detailed tests and what each of them offers to discerning car owners.


The Maxxis Premitra HP5 earned a commendable rating of 56% from us. Its key strengths according to tests conducted by Autobild and ACE included handling in wet conditions, resistance to both cross and longitudinal aquaplaning, and excellent braking performance in dry weather. This Maxxis model secured the first position in the ACE tests, highlighting its all-round quality and reliability.


On the other hand, the Avon ZV7 scored a rating of 17% in our test. Though trailing behind the Maxxis, it showed some strong points including efficient exterior noise management according to the ACE test. In a side-by-side comparison in the Autobild test, the Avon narrowly beat the Maxxis, ranking at 17th place against the Maxxis's 18th. This Avon tyre is an agreeable choice for those prioritising a quieter ride.


It's noteworthy that both these models have since been replaced. The new version of Maxxis Premitra HP5 and the revised Avon ZV7 have arrived, promising advancements and improvements to satisfy modern drivers.


In summary, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 is a versatile tyre with its strengths in wet and dry handling and robust aquaplane resistance. Meanwhile, the Avon ZV7 offers a quieter ride with reduced exterior noise. However, in the high-stakes field of tyre performance, Maxxis seems to take the lead based on our comprehensive test results. Nonetheless, either is a worthy contender depending on your specific usage and requirements.
