235/45 R18 - Best allround tyres 2026 - market overview, tests, reviews

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.

The Dutch brand Vredestein has always been a customer favorite, perhaps for being the underdog compared to premium German manufacturers. When it comes to all-season tires, the Quatrac is excellent, offering above-average wet performance while sacrificing a bit of snow performance, making it ideal for Central European climates.

The Turanza All Season 6 may be a little late to the all-season tyre market, but it is very well balanced and excels in mileage and wet performance, while sacrifying little bit of snow performance.

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.

Hankook's allseason tyre leans towards snow performance. It's really good in preventing longitudinal aquaplaning and it's also very quiet.

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.

Allseason tyre that is great on wet, safe on snow, has great mileage and is cheaper than the Michelin? Yes please!

The Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 is a budget all-season tyre carrying both the 3PMSF snowflake symbol and the M+S marking. It has appeared in 13 independent tests in our database and is available in a very wide range of sizes, with 232 dimensions listed. Most sizes carry EU label class B for wet grip, while fuel efficiency labels are mainly classes D and C.

The Rotalla Setula 4 Season RA03 is a budget all-season tyre with both the 3PMSF snowflake symbol and the M+S marking. It has appeared in 3 independent tests in our database and is available in a wide range of sizes. Most sizes carry EU label class B for wet grip and class C for fuel efficiency.

The new BF Goodrich all-season tire provides solid on-road performance in all conditions, but it has only average mileage and is not as affordable as expected.

The Nokian Seasonproof 2 is an allround tyre from the Finnish winter and all-weather specialist, designed for both combustion and electric vehicles. Replacing the original Seasonproof, this model introduces a sustainable construction using up to 38% renewable, recycled, and ISCC-Plus-certified materials. It delivers safety on snow and slush alongside strong summer performance. This tyre is also the first passenger car line produced at Nokian's LEED-certified factory in Oradea, Romania.

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.

The Michelin CrossClimate 3 is a premium all-season tyre that sets new benchmarks in winter performance for its category. Auto Bild testing reveals snow handling and traction capabilities that rival dedicated winter tyres, combined with excellent mileage and fuel efficiency. Its rolling resistance and longevity deliver strong cost-effectiveness over the tyre lifecycle. While wet performance is slightly behind the best in class, the CrossClimate 3 represents the most capable all-weather solution for drivers who face varied conditions year-round.

To do a good allseason tyre on a budget is difficult and Multiseason 2 is the proof of this. It's really good on snow, but lacks some of the wet safety that the premium models have.
