Expert summary

Our favorite every-day performance tyre that delivers fast laps on dry circuits while being safe for the daily commute, having won multiple tests in wet conditions. However, if you lean more towards comfort and low rolling resistance, the PremiumContact 7 might be a better choice.

Expert summary

We really like the new Potenza Sport, as it’s more sporty and dynamic than the usual tyre in this category, but still perfectly usable and safe for everyday driving, which makes it unique. It’s rolling resistance, mileage and overall comfort are also on a good level, except for a slighty higher noise.

Expert summary

Pilot Sport 4S is the sportier version of the Pilot Sports and the most sporty one that still cares about the wet performance, which is it's strong suite. It's usually expensive, but also a guarantee of a great performance tyre.

Expert summary

A dry-road specialist with track-day ambitions. The Supersport delivers incredible dry grip and handling precision, but it pays for that with weak wet performance, high noise, and the worst rolling resistance in test. A tyre for sunny weekends, not rainy commutes.

Expert summary

The Kumho Ecsta PS71 has been around for a while and keeps showing up well in tests. Strong aquaplaning resistance, short braking distances, and balanced handling across conditions make it a dependable choice. Comfort and noise are where it compromises.

Expert summary

The Azenis RS820 is a fresh addition from Falken, launched in 2024, and there's only one test to go on so far. That test paints a decent picture — short dry braking, stable cornering and a progressive, predictable handling balance. Rolling noise is a bit high and aquaplaning isn't its strongest suit. Too early to draw firm conclusions, but it's a promising start for a new tyre in a competitive segment.

Top brands in 295/30 R19

Did you know ...?

295/30 R19 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for summer tyres - there are 23 tyre models available, which can be compared to 155/70 R13, 185/55 R14, 180/55 R17. Let's break down the sizing - 30 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 30% of the tyre width (295mm), which means the sidewall height has 88.5 mm. The wheel diameter is R19, which means it fits to a 19 inch/482.6mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 2072.19 mm, which is very similar to 225/45 R18(2072.51 mm), 195/65 R16(2073.14 mm), 215/65 R15(2075.02 mm), 305/25 R20(2075.02 mm), 255/30 R20(2076.59 mm), 255/35 R19(2076.91 mm), 255/40 R18(2077.22 mm).
