Maxxis Premitra All Season AP3 ( 205/55 R17 95V XL )
Autobild Allyear tyre test 2020 205/55 R16 satisfactory Ranked #14 of 14The Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 secured the 13th position out of 14 in a highly competitive lineup. Despite ranking low overall, the tyre did exhibit some positive attributes such as good aquaplaning safety margins, dynamic handling, and short braking distances on dry surfaces. However, its performance was offset by several drawbacks including moderate durability, understeering behavior, and extended braking distances on wet roads, which ultimately impacted its standing. Notably, it excelled in the exterior noise discipline, showcasing its ability to operate quietly, a feature that often enhances the driving experience. Nevertheless, these strengths were not enough to significantly elevate its rank in the evaluation.
