Comparison: Vredestein Sportrac 5 vs. Maxxis Premitra HP5 vs. Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2

Our tyre comparison looks at two popular summer tyres: the Vredestein Sportrac 5 from Vredestein and the Maxxis Premitra HP5 from Maxxis.


The Vredestein Sportrac 5 is a quality tyre known for its performance in diverse road conditions. Although it didn't have any preceding model, nor a model that succeeded it, this tyre significantly holds its own in heated competition. Unfortunately, our rating data for this tyre is unavailable. Nevertheless, its performance in external tests is remarkable, securing the 10th spot among 51 tyres in the Autobild test, and an impressive 8th position among 16 tyres in the ADAC test.


On the other side of the ring, we have the Maxxis Premitra HP5. With a decent rating of 56%, it doesn't lag too far behind the Sportrac 5. Designed for the summer season, this tyre also doesn't have any previous or successor models. According to Autobild, it seizes the 9th position out of 51 tyres tested, placing it slightly higher than the Vredestein's counterpart. However, its performance took a dip in the ADAC test where it settled at the 15th position among 16 tyres. On the bright side, the ADAC noted that its best feature is efficient 'Wet braking' performance.


In an overall comparison, both tyres offer reliable performance with slight individual advantages. The Vredestein Sportrac 5 appears to exhibit consistently respectable performance across different tests, and if consistency is a key factor for you, then you might lean more towards this tyre.


The Maxxis Premitra HP5, however, shows it can outperform the Vredestein in some tests. The standout performance in wet braking may make it a priority for buyers looking for excellent wet performance. Despite its position in the ADAC test, it still managed to showcase brilliance in one critical area.


To sum up, both the Vredestein Sportrac 5 and Maxxis Premitra HP5 are competent competitors in the tyre market. Depending on specific preferences and needs, one may prove to be more beneficial than the other. As always, we recommend thorough research and comparison to determine the best fit for your vehicle/motor.
