AutoBild’s top 15 all-season tyres 2024

At the start of the week, AutoBild released the results of the qualification round for this year’s all-season tyre test. The finalists were chosen based on the shortest combined braking distances on wet and dry roads. Auto Bild assessed 15 popular all-season tyres in 225/50 R17, fitting each to a BMW 3 Series and subjecting them to 16 rigorous test processes designed to replicate a diverse range of real-world scenarios. After an initial 37-tyre qualifying round at the Automotive Testing Papenburg facility in Germany, the best-performing tyres underwent additional wet and dry testing at the Wachauring racetrack in Austria, followed by snow testing in the New Zealand Alps.
