good
Ranked #10 of 19

Securing the 10th position among 19 competitors, the Semperit Speed-Grip 5 earned a final rating of 'Good' for its performance. This tyre stood out for its short braking distances and precise handling on ice and snow, coupled with its exceptional aquaplaning resistance and low rolling resistance. However, it was noted for its mediocre wet grip and extended braking distances on both wet and dry surfaces. Remarkably, it showcased unparalleled excellence in specific tests, achieving the best performance in aquaplaning - both cross and longitudinal - as well as in comfort. This blend of strengths and weaknesses underscores its reliable yet mixed capabilities across various winter conditions.
