Comparison: Nokian WetProof vs. Maxxis Premitra HP5 vs. Bridgestone Turanza T005

4 mutual test(s) with detailed data

The comparison presented here highlights the specified properties of two different tyres: Nokian WetProof and Maxxis Premitra HP5. Both tyres are suitable for summer use with each having unique strengths.
First, we have the Nokian WetProof, produced in Finland by Nokian tyres. Based on the available data, this tyre has received an excellent overall rating of 83%. The WetProof model has displayed impressive performance in the wet conditions tests and it stands out particularly for its "Wet circle cornering" and "Wet handling" which is instrumental in maintaining better control and stability of the vehicle, especially in wet conditions. However, the absence of a newer model that replaces it is something worthy of note.
Additionally, in mutual tests, this tyre consistently outperforms many others. For instance, out of 10 tyres tested by Autozeitung, it ranked 6th while in the GTÜ, Firmenauto, Autobild, and ADAC tests, it achieved the very respectable positions of 2nd, 2nd, 5th, and 11th respectively.
In contrast, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 produced by Maxxis is slightly less impressive with a rating of 78%. Similarly, this tyre has not been replaced by a newer version. It excels in "Aquaplaning - cross" and "Dry handling," which ensures a high level of safety on both wet and dry surfaces and adds on to its popularity.
On to mutual tests, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 has achieved commendable positions as well. For instance, it earned the 5th spot out of 10 in the test conducted by Autozeitung. Furthermore, in the other tests carried out by GTÜ, Firmenauto, Autobild, and ADAC it managed to secure the positions of 4th, 6th, 20th, and 10th respectively.
In conclusion, given the overall data from the tests, it is evident that the Nokian Wetproof performs better overall, especially in wet conditions, outshining the Maxxis Premitra HP5. On the other hand, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 showcases robust handling in dry conditions making it a worthy contender nonetheless. Each of these tyres brings unique strengths to the table. Thus, choosing between them would ultimately depend on one's specific needs and environment.
