In this article, we will summarize the test results and give a verdict on the strengths and weaknesses of each tyre, taking into account their mutual test positions and overall performance.
Firstly, let's discuss the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-2. This tyre has an overall rating of 87% and delivers a strong performance in various tests.
