Continental AllSeasonContact 2
We had high expectations of the new all season Continental and it certainly didn't disappoint. It leans a bit towards mileage, which is a great strategy considering all season tyres are not usually used for sporty driving.
- Exceptional handling on the wet
- Short braking distance on wet roads
- Great handling on snow
- Low drive-by noise levels
- Low rolling resistance/low fuel consumption
- Below average aquaplaning resistance

Michelin CrossClimate 2
Crossclimate is now almost a synonym for a allseason tyre and it's second generation is even better than the first one. It's great on snow and dry, while having a superb rolling resistance.
- Exceptional traction on snow
- Short braking distance on dry roads
- Short braking distance on snow
- Very good aquaplaning resistance
- Low rolling resistance/low fuel consumption
- Bad value for the money

Kleber Quadraxer 3
Kleber is our favorite budget allseason tyre. Why? If you look just at the tread, you wouldn't tell it apart from the great Michelin CrossClimate 2. But it's not a cheap knockoff, Kleber is actually owned by Michelin and while the performance is understandably not exactly the same, the compromise is on rolling resistance and sportiness, not safety. If you're looking for a non-premium allseason tyre, this is the one.
- Very good aquaplaning resistance
- Great handling on snow
- Exceptional traction on snow
- Short braking distance on dry roads
- Short braking distance on snow
- Poor handling on the wet
- Low mileage

Falken EuroAll Season AS210
There aren't many well-rated all season tyres on the market, which makes the AS210 quite unique as it was recommended in all tests it was featured in. It could be better on snow but other than that, it's a very good tire.
- Very good aquaplaning resistance
- Short braking distance on snow
- Exceptional mileage
- Good value for the money
- High rolling resistance/high fuel consumption
- Inferior handling on snow

Did you know ...?
195/50 R16 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for allround tyres - there are 6 tyre models available, which can be compared to 155/60 R15, 170/60 R17, 160/60 R14. Let's break down the sizing - 50 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 50% of the tyre width (195mm), which means the sidewall height has 97.5 mm. The wheel diameter is R16, which means it fits to a 16 inch/406.4mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 1889.35 mm, which is very similar to 175/70 R14(1886.84 mm), 215/45 R16(1884.64 mm), 185/60 R15(1894.38 mm), 215/40 R17(1896.89 mm), 205/55 R15(1905.38 mm), 185/65 R14(1872.7 mm), 205/40 R17(1871.76 mm).
