1. Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate - Best UHP tire

Let’s kick this list off with a premium UHP tire, and here’s one that has been making a good impression on us for some time now: the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate, a tire that drivers everywhere have come to know and appreciate for its thrilling performance and excellent value. Goodyear designed the Eagle Exhilarate around a tread formulation that includes a high silica content for enhanced wet-weather grip and wear properties and a tread pattern that incorporates five ribs and wide circumferential grooves. We gave the Eagle Exhilarate a superlative SimpleScore of 9.9 for traction, thanks to its dense network of sipes, and circumferential and lateral/angled grooves, Cornering, braking distances, driver feedback, and responsiveness are also top-notch, thanks to a flat, square footprint that’s designed to keep the most rubber in contact with the road even during hard maneuvers. A rigid tread area and reinforced shoulders help prevent the squirming and deformation that results from the inertia and G-forces of hard cornering. The internal design of the Eagle Exhilarate delivers good stability and durability at high speeds, with a polyester casing, lightweight, high-tensile steel belts, and a nylon cap ply. Road manners, driver feedback, and ride comfort are also quite good thanks to two layers of polyamide reinforcement plies. SimpleTire rang up a SimpleScore of 8.6 for longevity, and Goodyear covers the Eagle Exhilarate with a 45,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty.

2. Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 PLUS - Best UHP All-Season tire

If you ever wanted a tire with the versatility of year-round traction paired with UHP levels of cornering, braking, and steering response, the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 PLUS is one you really should consider. The ExtremeContact DWS06 PLUS is designed to give drivers the confidence of year-round performance and dependable traction in wet, dry, or light wintry weather, along with the kind of road manners and overall handling that are more like what you’d expect from a UHP tire. The ExtremeContact DWS06 PLUS is an even better value when you bear in mind that UHP and summer tires have a softer tread compound that hardens in the cold and has to be removed and swapped with all-weather or all-season tires in colder weather. The ExtremeContact DWS06 PLUS is an upgrade on the successful track record of the popular, proven ExtremeContact DWS06 in just about every category. Its cornering ability, braking, and steering response are all enhanced greatly by the tire’s reinforced 2-ply sidewalls and macroblocks in the tread. After taking in all the reviews and data points, the ExtremeContact DWS06 PLUS gets a hard-to-beat SimpleScore of 9.9 for handling. Long life and great wet-weather traction are also among the strengths of the DWS06 PLUS, with its silica-infused tread compound, sweeping lateral grooves, circumferential grooves, and X-sipes for rainy roads or light snowy conditions. SimpleScore for traction: 9.8. Longevity is also unparalleled, with a 9.2 SimpleScore, and the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus is covered by a 60,000 mile warranty.

3. Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 EV - Best Winter tire

You’d probably assume that any tire company based in Finland would have plenty of experience designing tires for the rigors of a Scandinavian winter, and you’d be correct in that assumption. Nokian (yes, the same parent company as Nokia phones) has invested decades of R&D in designing next-generation winter tires, and the Hakkapeliitta R5 EV is loaded with innovations and features to help you safely navigate winter driving. The Hakkapeliitta R5 is a long, long way from the heavy, noisy, clunky “snow tires” of 40 years ago. Designed for low rolling resistance, the Hakkapeliitta R5 EV is a great candidate for a winter tire for hybrids and EVs. Nokian’s Double Block Grip pattern is designed for handling and cornering that are responsive and nimble as well as tenacious winter grip, with SimpleScores of 9.9 for traction and 8.6 for handling. Arctic Grip Crystals infused into the tread are designed to add friction for the same kind of confident grip you’d expect with a studded winter tire, except without the noisy ride, damage to pavement surfaces, and legal restrictions that always go along with studded tires. The tread compound and construction of the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 EV is also designed for durability, for a SimpleScore of 9.2 for longevity. As always, winter tires like the Hakkapeliitta R5 EV shouldn’t be used in warmer conditions. Winter tires use a softer, more flexible tread formulation of winter tires that will wear quickly in warmer weather and shouldn’t be used if temps are above 45 degrees F. In case you ever wondered about the name, “Hakkapeliitta” is the Finnish word for that country’s 17th-century cavalry troops. The Hakkapeliitta R5 EV is, as you’d expect, Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified.

4. Toyo Extensa HP II - Best All-Season Tire

Next up is a great value in a performance-oriented all-season tire, the Toyo Extensa HP II. Our team gives the Extensa HP II a very strong SimpleScore of 8.7 for traction thanks to its innovative all-season tread design that features 3D multi-wave sipes, two circumferential grooves, and V-shaped lateral voids that all function as a system to resist hydroplaning and evacuate water from the tire’s contact patch. Handling is quick and precise for a SimpleScore of 8.7, with large shoulders and outer tread blocks with double and single-cut tapers for improved block stiffness and road contact during hard cornering. With a 45,000 mile warranty, the Toyo Extensa HP II is durable too, with two steel belts, a polyester casing, and a nylon reinforcement ply for a longevity score of 9.4.

5. Yokohama Advan Sport A/S Plus - Great UHP All-Season tire

Let’s close out this list with a tire that delivers a great blend of year-round traction with breathtaking performance, the Yokohama Advan Sport A/S Plus. Yokohama covers the Advan Sport A/S Plus with a 55,000 mile warranty; it’s constructed with a high-turnup sidewall, long-wearing silica-rich tread compound, and durable internal construction for a SimpleScore of 9.1 for longevity. Cornering and steering response are immediate and precise, with extra-large outboard shoulder blocks and 2-in-1 intermediate blocks that help register a SimpleScore of 8.7 for handling. In wet or dry conditions, the Advan Sport A/S Plus is predictable and secure with a system of circumferential grooves, lateral grooves, Z-shaped grooves, and Yokohama’s innovative Wavy Sipes, all working together to provide mechanical grip and adhesion on dry roads and resist hydroplaning on wet pavement, for a traction score of 8.8. All in all, the Yokohama Advan Sport A/S Plus would be an excellent choice for your Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG or a variety of sporty coupes, sedans, and crossovers.
