The Kumho HA32 Solus 4S and Nokian Seasonproof are two popular all-season tyres that have both shown solid performance on the road. Here, we'll examine these tyres in more detail to highlight their strengths and weaknesses.


The Kumho HA32 Solus 4S, made in China, scored a solid 73% in our rating system. The key strengths of the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S, according to the Autobild tests, were snow braking, mileage and price/value, with noteworthy aquaplaning performance. Some weaknesses highlighted were slightly extended wet/dry braking distances and mediocre aquaplaning reserves.


From the Autobild 2021 tests' results, we recognize other strengths such as good safety reserves with aquaplaning and stable dry handling. However, these tests showed snow handling capabilities to be only satisfactory, with a slight understeering during wet handling and elevated rolling resistance being points for potential improvement.


Let's switch to the Nokian Seasonproof tyre, proven to be impressive in the areas of exterior noise, snow braking, and snow handling. It has consistent aquaplaning qualities and stable dry handling. However, the drawbacks include extended braking distances on both wet and dry road surfaces.


Aquaplaning characteristics and snow capabilities are considerable strengths, as observed in the Autobild 2021 test. It manages to balance this performance with a minimal rolling resistance, ensuring pleasant comfort. Yet, it falls short in some areas, notably having extended wet and dry braking distances along with understeering wet and dry handling.
