Promobil’s October comparison puts six all-season van tyres through snow, wet-road and dry-road testing on a Fiat Ducato. Continental delivers the strongest overall result, Goodyear leads on wet roads and Michelin leads in the dry. GT Radial is the value recommendation. All six receive at least a good rating, but their strengths and weaknesses differ substantially.

What promobil tested
The test appears in promobil 10/2026, pages 98–103. The tested size is 225/75 R16 C. Snow contributes 20% of the overall result, wet performance 40%, dry performance 20% and environmental performance 20%. The detailed table includes 19 disciplines. The magazine reports prices as of 17 August 2026 and a technical reference date of December 2025.
Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Cargo: The source lists the usual service description as 121/120 R. One tyre was tested with load index 118 because of availability, against the same test standard. Scores should therefore be read with the source’s load-index caveat; fitment must match the vehicle’s approved load and speed requirements.

Strengths and weaknesses of each tyre
Continental VanContact 4Season
Continental wins with 8.6/10 and the strongest snow category at 9.9/10. Its cornering grip and handling are convincing on wet and dry roads, with comfortable, quiet running. The trade-offs are longer wet and dry braking distances than the best tyres here and less aquaplaning protection. It is the strongest overall choice in this comparison, rather than the winner of every individual discipline.
- Best overall result and strongest snow category.
- Strong wet and dry cornering grip, with good comfort.
- Longer wet and dry braking distances than the leaders; weaker aquaplaning protection.
Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Cargo
Goodyear scores 8.1/10 and leads the wet category at 8.6/10. Its 36.6 m wet stopping distance is the shortest in the test, backed by predictable understeer and easy control on snow. Dry performance is balanced. Slight noise during slow cornering and elevated rolling resistance are its main drawbacks. It suits buyers who put wet-road safety first.
- Shortest wet stopping distance: 36.6 m.
- Predictable wet handling and easy control on snow.
- Some slow-cornering noise and elevated rolling resistance.
Michelin Agilis CrossClimate
Michelin also scores 8.1/10. It leads the dry category with 8.9/10 and stops shortest on dry asphalt at 48.3 m. Winter performance is good overall, but steering reserves on snow are limited. Wet cornering grip and understeer hold it back, despite good aquaplaning protection. Reduced ride comfort and slightly elevated rolling resistance are further compromises.
- Best dry category and shortest dry stopping distance: 48.3 m.
- Good winter performance and aquaplaning protection.
- Weak wet cornering grip, limited snow steering reserves and reduced comfort.
GT Radial Maxmiler AllSeason 2
GT Radial earns 7.7/10 and promobil’s value recommendation, at the publisher’s test-time price of EUR 136 per tyre. Its 9.6/10 snow score is especially strong, with good wet cornering grip and very good ride comfort. Longer braking distances, slower steering response, less aquaplaning protection and elevated rolling resistance limit its appeal outside that winter-focused value role.
- Value recommendation, with a strong 9.6/10 snow score.
- Good wet cornering grip and very good ride comfort.
- Longer braking distances, slower steering and elevated rolling resistance.
Nokian Seasonproof C1
Nokian scores 7.7/10, the same rounded overall score as GT Radial. It combines predictable behaviour on snow and wet roads with the strongest aquaplaning protection and generous dry cornering reserves. Longer braking distances on all tested surfaces prevent a better result. Slight cornering noise and elevated rolling resistance are additional drawbacks. It offers a balanced handling package, with braking as its main limitation.
- Best aquaplaning protection in this comparison.
- Predictable snow and wet handling, with good dry cornering reserves.
- Longer braking distances on every tested surface and elevated rolling resistance.
Bridgestone Duravis All Season Evo
Bridgestone finishes last with 7.2/10, still rated good. Its 9.4/10 environmental score leads the test, driven by particularly low rolling resistance, and it has the strongest starting traction on snow. That does not translate into equally strong snow braking or lateral grip. Weak wet grip, long stopping distances and sluggish dry steering make its efficiency advantage a difficult trade-off for motorhome use.
- Lowest rolling resistance and best environmental category.
- Strongest starting traction on snow.
- Weak wet grip, long braking distances and limited snow lateral grip.
Which result matters for your use?
Continental offers the best balance in this field. Goodyear is particularly convincing for wet braking, while Michelin stands out for dry braking. GT Radial combines winter strength with a lower test-time price; Nokian excels at aquaplaning protection. Bridgestone prioritises rolling efficiency, with substantial grip compromises. These conclusions apply to this tested size and vehicle context. Promobil stresses that all-season tyres remain a compromise compared with dedicated summer and winter tyres in extreme heat or snow.
