satisfactory
Ranked #7 of 16

The Fulda SportControl 2 secured the 7th position out of 16 competitors, achieving a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' This tire was praised for its dependable driving characteristics on dry roads, its lightweight nature, and its low fuel consumption. However, it faced criticism for slight weaknesses in dry road comfort and wet conditions performance, alongside an adequate projected tread life. While it demonstrated good aquaplaning resistance and braking distances on dry surfaces were notably commendable, its performance on wet surfaces narrowly missed achieving a higher accolade due to deficiencies in wet braking and handling. The Fulda SportControl 2 offered an adequate level of grip but struggled to optimally combine longitudinal and lateral forces under wet conditions. Its environmental footprint, although closely missing a higher mark, was recognized for efficiency benefiting from the tire's reduced weight and lower fuel consumption; however, its wear resistance and projected longevity were only deemed satisfactory.

satisfactory
Ranked #8 of 11

Securing the 8th position among 11 contenders, the Fulda SportControl 2 earned a final rating of 'Satisfactory' for its performance. The tyre was praised for its branded profile, which demonstrated secure driving characteristics on both wet and dry roads, showcasing good aquaplaning resistance and short braking distances on dry surfaces, along with low rolling resistance and high comfort levels. Specifically, it excelled in disciplines such as Aquaplaning - cross and Comfort, marking it as a standout in these areas.

These aspects were the main points of critique but did not overshadow its overall competent performance.
