Let's take a comparative glance at two popular tyre models: the Linglong Sport Master and the Fulda SportControl 2. Both these models cater to the summer tyre category, designed to provide superior performance on dry as well as wet surfaces.
The Linglong Sport Master, a tyre from Chinese manufacturer Linglong, is an Ultra High Performance (UHP) summer tyre with our rating of 72%. It secured the 7th position among 50 tyres in the Autobild test. The strength of this tyre is its exterior noise level, which was praised twice in the tests. However, the weaknesses pointed out across different tests include short braking distances, dynamic yet secure handling in all weather conditions, and good lateral control. The Linglong Sport Master was notably criticized for its very low mileage, excessive understeering during dry handling, and average comfort levels.
On the other hand, the Fulda SportControl 2, a product from the well-known manufacturer Fulda, comes with our rating of 69%. Despite being one of the forerunners in the summer tyres market, it secured the 18th position in the Autobild test. The strength of the Fulda SportControl 2 lies in its balanced and safe handling traits on wet surfaces, even at a low price tag. However, the tyre was criticized for its extended wet braking distances and slightly delayed steering response.
In the side-by-side comparison, the Linglong Sport Master held a better position in overall tests compared to the Fulda SportControl 2, despite the Fulda tyre bearing a globally recognized brand. Both tyres demonstrated their individual strengths, but also underlined areas that require improvement. So far, neither of these tyres has been replaced with newer models.
Conclusively, if a quieter ride and vibrant handling are your priorities, Linglong Sport Master could be your choice. However, if you're after secure wet surface handling at a modest price tag, then Fulda SportControl 2 might be the better tyre for you.
