    Hello. It is time for me to change my all season tiers. I'm driving Skoda Octavia Wagon, tyre size 225/45/17. I live in South East Euore, where we have hot summers and winters are mainly cold and rainy and sometimes with little snow. I'm a familiy man and I need a tayre that is good, relaible, good wear, performance also. I have narrowed to following tiers Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6, Continental Contact 2, Goodyear Vector Gen3 and CrossClimate 2. If I need to put them in order it should go something like this Continetal, Bridgestone, Goodyear, and CC2. Would you go for in order from first to last? Also considering Kleber Q3.

I suppose that if you go to the mountains you should use winter tires but for normal conditions they are perfect.

    I’m in the US Midwest and extreme hot and cold/snowy weather - and I love the Nokian All-Weather tires. They’re a Finnish company well known for great winter tires but have added all-weather mix tires to their line-up. I believe they added a factory in the US and are trying to penetrate deeper sales here. The Nokian all-weathers I have are less expensive than the Crossclimate2 but almost as good on snow. Excellent traction in cold weather. I also give the edge to the Nokian over CC2 for say spring/summer/fall dry weather highway driving - I find the Nokian quieter.

    It is important to note that Tesla is not using the new Hankook tire in the 18” size despite it being available. Only the upgrade 19” wheels will be available with these new Hankook tires. While these tires will improve the efficiency of the 19” wheels the 18” wheels still have far superior efficiency even with the same tires that the previous Model 3 vehicles had.

      It really depends on the usage, I had a chance to take Nokian Weatherproof to the Czech mountains (nothing like the Alps, but still have snow) and we climbed some really steep snow-covered roads with no problems on a FWD Passat - they actually are really decent when the snow is "sticky", as they fill the tread with snow and then use it for traction. Given the Crossclimates should be even better on snow I would give it a try, but still if you have snow whole winter it makes more sense to have two sets of tyres.

      Well, I certainly thought about featuring it - the Vredestein Quatrac is a nice option, but there's only a few dimensions available, as you said mostly for smaller cars. The performance version Quatrac Pro got a "insufficient" rating in ADAC test in 2020 because of it's poor snow performance, that's why it wasn't featured... I can't fit all tyres in one video, but if you check my website, you can see the best tyres in your dimension and Vredestein is in the upper positions for the smaller dimensions :) Dutch version here: www.autobandentest.eu
