Case for fitting all-season tyres over specialist winter tyres demonstrated in Autozeitung test

German magazine Autozeitung has tested seven winter tyres and three all-season tyres, competing in the usual range of dry, wet and snow conditions. The test appears to confirm the quality of all-season tyres, with all three tyres receiving comparatively high overall marks and the coveted “Highly Recommended” grade. This result was mostly due to the all-season tyres’ consistently better performance in the dry. Conversely, on snow, the all-rounder tyres only lagged slightly behind the models specialised for the colder season, though Autozeitung adds that the performance gap between the two types of tyre in winter conditions increases as the temperature drops. Having tested the tyres on snow in temperatures between -10 and -15 Celsius, the magazine confirmed that the all-season tyres tested are “completely sufficient” for “normal requirements”, while recommending the specialist winter tyres “for maximum performance in tough, winter conditions”.
