Today we're doing a comparison of two all-around tyres, the Viking Fourtech and the Maxxis Premitra AS AP3. Both tyres are known for their versatile performance; however, each has its unique strengths and weaknesses based on our test results.
Viking Fourtech:
An all-around tyre, the Viking Fourtech didn't have a predecessor and so far, there isn't a new model that replaced it. It was rated 45% by our team. This tyre impressively secured its position in 25th place out of 31 tyres in the Autobild test. The test praises the tyre for its impressive aquaplaning - cross performance and low rolling resistance. However, it didn't stand out in other aspects.

Maxxis Premitra AS AP3:
Made in China, the Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 also didn't have a predecessor, and currently, no new model has replaced it yet. Receiving a slightly higher rating of 53% by our team, this tyre did remarkably well in the Autobild test where it landed the 4th position out of 31 tyres. The highest performing features of the tyre are exterior noise reduction, aquaplaning - cross & longitudinal performance, and dry braking. The autobild 2020 summary talks about its good safety reserves with aquaplaning conditions, dynamic handling, and short braking distances in dry conditions. More detailed information about this tyre is available on the Maxxis Official Website.
In conclusion, the Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 outperformed Viking Fourtech in our tests, taking a higher position with a better rating and demonstrating superior capabilities in noise reduction and braking. This does not discount the performance of Viking Fourtech in its own light. It performed well particularly in aquaplaning-cross conditions and showcased low rolling resistance.
Remember, the best tyre for you hinges on your driving habits and needs, therefore assessing these test results in the lens of your individual needs and circumstances is crucial.
