Product reviews

By no means a bad tyre, but rivals have moved the game on with their new designs and development since the Premitra’s debut

While Avon’s entry lacked performance, especially in the snow, it proved to be one of the quietest tyres

Although not yet on sale, the Continental WinterContact TS 870 is potentially a champion in waiting

Although helping to provide improved fuel economy, the Nokian WR Snowproof isn't the best choice for a capable winter tyre

A reasonable performance, but the Dunlop range is beginning to show its age.

This is third time we’ve tested the Eurowinter HS01, and each time it gets a little closer to the leaders. 

Great on the snow, but the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance + can't compete with rivals in the wet and dry conditions

The Pirelli Cinturato Winter tyre is the most capable on the snow and has closed the gap on top spot

A well deserved second podium for the French producer, although the gap over the following three tyres is tiny. 

A debut success for the Blizzak LM005 and a first win for Japanese giant Bridgestone in our tyre tests. 

Despite reducing the emphasis on snow performance in our scoring system, this result suggests a winter tyre is arguably a better option than an all-se…

Our top four are closely matched, but snowy and wet roads are where the Nokian performs best.

Another product of Bridgestone’s extensive driver-consultation process, the A005 has a modern look to its results.
