1. Bridgestone Alenza A/S Ultra - Best All-Season Tire

Let’s start this list with the Alenza A/S Ultra from Bridgestone, an all-season tire with high marks for year-round traction on dry, wet, or snowy roads. It’s a very versatile and capable tire that offers the performance you need along with the sort of low highway noise and refined ride quality that aligns with expectations for a Grand Touring tire. The Alenza A/S Ultra is one of the newer iterations of Bridgestone’s Alenza tire family and is designed with long, even tread wear and crisp handling in mind. For excellent wear properties, low noise generation, and dependable grip in wet or wintry weather, the Alenza A/S Ultra is made with an advanced silica-based tread compound. The Alenza A/S Ultra resists hydroplaning with an asymmetric all-season tread pattern and wide circumferential grooves to remove water from the tire’s contact patch in wet weather. When winter weather starts piling up snow on the roads, there’s a dense pattern of sipes and Bridgestone’s Snow Vices, grooves that are designed so they pick up and retain snow to build snow-to-snow friction and the safe, reliable traction you need in such conditions. Bridgestone’s Quiet Track technology package cancels certain and reduces pattern noise frequencies for a whisper-quiet ride. Internally, the Alenza A/S Ultra is designed with a polyester casing reinforced by two steel belts and a spiral-wound nylon cap layer for the secure highway-speed stability and long wear you’re looking for. Bridgestone is confident enough to cover the Alenza A/S Ultra with an 80,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty when you put that all together. After putting all this info into SimpleTire’s SimpleScore system, the Alenza A/S Ultra pulls down an overall average of 9.6, with marks of 9.55 for handling, 9.7 for longevity, and 9.7 for traction. Long, even wear, dependable grip year-round, wear and handling that’s predictable and accurate – that's what you can expect with the Bridgestone Alenza A/S Ultra.

2. Falken Azenis FK460 A/S - Great All-Season Tire

For some time now, just about tire from the Falken product line has made a good impression on us, and the Azenis FK460 A/S is no exception. The Falken Azenis FK460 A/S is designed for a secure, confident grip in wet or dry weather, with its advanced 4D Nano tread compound and Canyon Groove tech for improved grip in wet or wintry conditions. Intuitively, most tires will lose traction as the tread depth gets shallower, but the Azenis FK460 A/S is designed with Emerging Grooves that open up and expand for extended performance even as the miles pile up and the tire’s tread depth wears. The Azenis FK460 A/S gets excellent wet or dry weather performance from circumferential grooves with chamfered edges for a traction score 8.6. Thanks partly to that 4D Nano tread formulation, Falken covers the Azenis FK460 A/S with a 50,000 mile warranty for a SimpleScore of 9.1 for longevity. Steering response, cornering, road manners, and braking performance are all first-class with this tire, for a SimpleScore of 8.8 for handling. It’s also worth mentioning that the Azenis FK460 A/S has a quiet and composed ride on the highway, with grooves that cancel specific frequencies to keep road noise to a minimum and are acoustically tuned to reduce wind noise.

3. Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3 - Best UHP All-Season Tire

Next up is the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3, an ultra-high-performance all-season tire designed for enthusiastic performance and reliable traction year-round. The P Zero All Season Plus 3 is designed from the ground up with an updated polymer-enhanced tread formulation for durability and long wear, a tough twin steel belt package, a polyester casing, and polyamide reinforcement plies. Pirelli covers the P Zero All Season Plus 3 with a 50,000 mile manufacturer’s treadwear warranty. With that in mind, we give the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3 a very respectable SimpleScore of 8.9 for longevity. The year-round grip is another real strength of this tire, with an asymmetric tread pattern with a minimal void area and a footprint that’s flat and stable to put the most rubber in contact with the road. Performance in wet or wintry conditions is superb, thanks to various sipes, including full-depth 3D sipes in select tread blocks, for an outstanding SimpleScore of 9.9 for traction. Enhanced steering response, braking, and cornering all get a boost from larger pitch-sequenced tread blocks and reinforced shoulders for a SimpleScore of 9.9 for handling.

4. Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV - Best Winter Tire

For our winter tire, let’s talk about an offering from one of the best winter tire manufacturers in the business, the Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV from Nokian. You would expect any tire manufacturer based in Finland to have decades of experience designing tires for a tough Scandinavian winter, and you’d be right if you thought that. Nokian (yes, the same parent company as Nokia phones) has been specializing in next-generation winter tires for cars and trucks for many years, and the Hakkapeliitta R5 is packed with innovations and features that can help navigate the rigors of winter driving. Winter tires have come far from the heavy, noisy, clunky “snow tires” of 40 years ago. Nokian designed the Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV with such low rolling resistance that it’s a great candidate for a winter tire for hybrids and EVs. Nokian’s Double Block Grip Pattern delivers cornering, braking, and steering responses that are all precise and direct (along with tenacious winter grip), with SimpleScores of 9.9 for traction and 8.6 for handling. One example of Nokian’s forward-thinking design: the tread compound of the Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV is infused with Arctic Grip Crystals that help deliver the same kind of tenacious grip you’d expect with a studded winter tire, except with none of the legal restrictions damage to pavement surfaces and excess noise that is part of the deal with studded tires. The tread formulation and construction of the Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV are also designed for durability and a SimpleScore of 9.2 for longevity. Like all winter tires, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV is not intended for use in warmer weather. Their softer, more flexible tread formulation will wear prematurely in warmer weather and should never be used if temperatures exceed 40-45 degrees F. If you have ever wondered about “Hakkapeliitta,” it is the Finnish word for that country’s 17th-century cavalry troops. As expected, the Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV has the tire industry’s Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certification for severe winter service.

5. Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 - Best Ultra-High Performance Tire

There are always summer and ultra-high-performance (UHP) tires for drivers who love to push the envelope. The ExtremeContact Sport 02 from Continental is an advanced summer tire designed for a perfect combination of tread life, handling properties, ride comfort, and low noise. The ExtremeContact Sport 02 is designed with Continental’s +Silane tread compound for secure handling in wet weather, with deep circumferential grooves that fight hydroplaning by providing a pathway for standing water to be evacuated from the tire’s footprint. SimpleScore for traction is a very strong 9.8. SimpleScore for handling is nearly as strong, at 9.6 – thanks to a ribbed, asymmetric tread pattern with a continuous center rib that boosts road feel and steering response, wide tread blocks, and a reinforced shoulder for tenacious lateral grip while cornering. Unlike many summer-only tires, the Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 is covered by a 30,000 mile treadwear warranty. With a durable polyester casing, two steel belts, and a nylon cap ply layer, the ExtremeContact Sport 02 gets a SimpleScore of 8.5 for longevity.
