If you're in search for high-quality summer tyres, it's worth considering Maxxis Premitra HP5 and BFGoodrich Advantage. Both of these models have their own strengths and weaknesses as per user and professional test results.


Maxxis Premitra HP5


The Maxxis brand was found in numerous tests to have launched a competitive product in the form of the Premitra HP5 tyre. The tyre has an overall rating of 78%, showcasing good performance. Across several tests, these tyres demonstrated excellent aquaplaning resistance and wet handling performance, ranking 9th out of 53 on AutoBild and 4th out of 9 on GTÜ. The Maxxis Premitra HP5 also scored well in terms of dry handling and grip level on both, wet and dry surfaces.


Various test feedback point towards good kilometre performance and short dry braking distances as significant plusses. A point of attention, however, might be the slightly delayed steering response.


BFGoodrich Advantage


On the other hand, the BFGoodrich Advantage performed admirably well with an overall rating of 76%. This tyre was highly praised for its comfort, dry handling and fuel efficiency. It ranked 18th out of 53 on AutoBild and stood out in the test from ADAC, gaining high marks for its fuel efficiency.


Feedback from tests highlight the dynamic and silent drive the Advantage offers, along with the stable drive behaviour and short braking distances on dry surfaces. A minor drawback to account for might be its understeering tendency on wet surfaces.

The Maxxis Premitra HP5 is an excellent choice for individuals seeking excellent aquaplaning resistance and wet handling, while the BFGoodrich Advantage stands out for those wanting a comfortable, quiet, and fuel efficient driving experience, especially in dry conditions.
