Comparison: Maxxis Premitra HP5 vs. Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 vs. Michelin e.Primacy vs. Bridgestone Turanza T005 vs. GoodYear Efficientgrip Performance 2

The Maxxis Premitra HP5 and Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 are two popular summer tyres frequently compared in many tests. While they are both summer tyres, their performance, features, and effectiveness vary, offering a unique set of benefits for different types of drivers.


The Maxxis Premitra HP5 is greatly appreciated for its excellent aquaplaning resistance and short wet braking distances, as highlighted in AutoBild's test where it took the 9th position out of 53 tyres. However, Autobild's 2022 test summary highlighted its drawbacks, such as understeering dry handling and limited mileage. According to other tests carried out by Autozeitung, Gtü, and Firmenauto, this tyre's best features include its dry handling, wet circle cornering, and external noise level. Overall, its best features make it a strong contender, particularly for those looking for safety in wet conditions, despite its dry handling drawbacks.


On the other hand, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 has solidified its position not only as a successor of the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance but also as a reliable summer tyre. It secured 13th place in AutoBild's test, mainly due to its impressive mileage, comfort, and price-to-value ratio. This tyre was also lauded by Autobild in 2022 for its outstanding handling capabilities, short braking distances, and high mileage, although its high price level was noted as a disadvantage. In other tests, this tyre excelled in exterior noise, comfort, and both wet and dry handling, coming in the top 10 in nearly all comparisons.


In summary, both Maxxis and Goodyear have produced highly proficient summer tyres, each with their strengths and weaknesses. The Maxxis Premitra HP5 stands out for its excellent safety reserves at aquaplaning and lower price point, but falls short with understeering in dry handling and limited mileage. On the other hand, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 shines for its outstanding handling characteristics and high mileage, yet comes with a higher price. Therefore, the ultimate decision between these two depends on specific driver requirements.


In a direct comparison of test results, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 comes out ahead overall due to consistently better positions and unique high-quality features such as high mileage and great handling under both wet and dry conditions. However, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 is a strong alternative for drivers prioritising aquaplaning safety and those on a tighter budget.
