Comparison: Maxxis Victra Sport 5 vs. Linglong Sport Master vs. Falken Azenis FK520 vs. Toyo Proxes Sport 2 vs. Vredestein Quatrac Pro vs. Avon ZV7

Sure, here's your article:


The Maxxis Victra Sport 5 and the Linglong Sport Master are two summer UHP tyres that came under the microscope in our tests. Here, in detail, is a comprehensive comparison between the two.


The Maxxis Victra Sport 5, originating from CN, does a commendable job on wet surfaces with good safety reserves in aquaplaning and secure dynamic handling. In Autobild's review, the tyre's best feature was its commendable wet circle cornering, earning it the 9th position out of 50 tyres in the test. However, its shortcomings show in average mileage and noticeably delayed steering response. This tyre does not have a newer model.


On the other hand, the Linglong Sport Master, lauded for its impressively low exterior noise, claimed the 7th position in the Autobild test. What makes it a worthy contender though, are its short braking distances, dynamic, and secure handling in all weathers, and good level of directional control. However, its lack of endurance, dramatically understeering in dry handling, and moderate comfort level diminish its overall appeal. Also, there isn't a newer variant of this model available yet.


Both tyres have been through a rigorous round of testing in autobild 2021 and autobild 2023 attesting to similar strengths and weaknesses. The Maxxis tyre delivered consistent performance with good aquaplaning safety reserves and secure dynamic wet handling, but suffered from average mileage and delayed steering response. The Linglong tyre too, maintained its profile with short brake distances on wet and dry surfaces, paired with quiet rolling noise and economic pricing, but was includes low overall mileage and understeering in dry handling as its drawbacks.


In conclusion, with our rating of 69%, Maxxis Victra Sport 5 outperforms the Linglong Sport Master at 64%, primarily due to its superior handling on wet surfaces. Both tyres need improvement in the mileage department, suggesting lower than average durability.

Our verdict: For exceptional handling on wet surfaces, go with the Maxxis Victra Sport 5. If looking for quiet ride quality and smooth handling in all weathers, the Linglong Sport Master might be a good choice. But bear in mind, in terms of overall performance and durability, Maxxis outshines Linglong.
