Best test result: #1 of 9 in 2025 ACE/ARBÖ/GTÜ All-Season Tire Test R17 (snow braking)

“Falken Euroall Season AS210 vs Hankook Kinergy Eco 2 My mum drives an old VW Golf and needs new tyres for her car. She regularly does motorway trips and wants four tyres that will last. Two tyres that are within her budget (£300) with fitting included are the Falken Euroall Season AS210 and the Hankook Kinergy Eco 2. I'm leaning toward the Hankook just because of the brand recognition but the Falken is an all season tyre whereas the Hankook is only a summer tyre. Does this matter? The Hankook also has better fuel economy and wet braking in when I look at the EU chart but is that cancelled out by the fact it is a summer tyre and not a winter one? How much should I give to the EU rating?”

“Vredestein Quatrac and Hankook Kinergy 4S2 are good tyres. I prefer the vredestein quite comfortable tyres and quieter than the Hankook. But you can't go wrong with either of them.”

    No owner ratings of noise for EUROALL SEASON AS210 or Quatrac. The owner half is the owners’ average (66): owners’ noise ratings barely follow the road tests, so the tests say nothing about how owners would rate it.

Tire A

Falken EUROALL SEASON AS210

Neutral

Community discussions regarding the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS210 predominantly consist of product listings and prospective buyers evaluating it as a budget-friendly all-season option. Users frequently compare its EU label ratings for wet grip and fuel economy against summer tires and premium all-season competitors like Michelin CrossClimate 2 and Goodyear Vector 4Seasons.

r/CarTalkUK ·13 upvotes ·2021-08-19

“All Season tyre vs Summer tyre with better wet grip? I’ve always just assumed that All Season tyres are going to be better for driving in wet conditions than the equivalent summer tyre, but now I’m confused. See these Falken tyres for example: Falken Sincera SN 110 - EU Wet Grip class A. Falken Euroall Season AS210 - EU Wet Grip class B-C The summer tyres are also cheaper & have better fuel economy according to the EU labels. What would be the advantage of all season tyres in these scenarios? Or am I missing something really obvious regarding how the EU ratings work? Read more”

Tire B

Vredestein Quatrac

Positive

Community sentiment toward the Vredestein Quatrac is overwhelmingly positive, with drivers viewing it as one of the best mid-range all-weather tires available. Users frequently praise its reliable traction in wet and snowy conditions, along with its quiet and comfortable ride compared to rivals. While some owners note that stopping distances on ice or deep snow do not match dedicated winter tires and tread wear can vary, most consider it an exceptional value over premium brands like Michelin.

alltrac.net ·2025-04-09

“I agree with all of that. The Vredesteins are good, at least the set I have was. I’ll give them another shot at $600. If the sidewalls are a bit fragile to get that lightness, I suppose that’s something to keep in mind. Most people just don’t think about their car and don’t want to. They just want to go to work and get home after work. People have weird expectations of their tires. Whether this is a joke or not it might as well be a genuine review because certainly there’s someone out there for whom this is true.”
bobistheoilguy.com ·2019-02-01

“The last week or so here we have received about 12-15 inches of snow. I have these on my 2003 Forester and must say they dig through the snow very well. The only thing that I have found is that they seem a little slick when stopping. Don't stop as well as the Blizzaks on the wife's Galant, but then again they are not a dedicated winter tire either. Have put about 3500 miles on them since July and must say for an all season tire they have performed well in all conditions.”
r/TyreReviews ·5 upvotes ·2026-09-25

“Vredestein Quatrac and Hankook Kinergy 4S2 are good tyres. I prefer the vredestein quite comfortable tyres and quieter than the Hankook. But you can't go wrong with either of them.”

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.

Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.

Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score. Full methodology
