Hey Gary@TireRack TireRack!! I'm a bit baffled by the objective numbers posted by a set of Ultra High Performance All Season tires compared to a set of Max Performance Summer tires.

The tests were written up in July 2016 and involved Michelin Pilot Super Sport and the Pilot Sport A/S 3+ as well as the Pirelli P Zero PZ4 and P Zero All Season Plus.

The tire sizes and test vehicles were the same but the wet performance was significantly better for the all seasons and the dry performance was not far removed.

Are there atmospheric differences that explain this away? Or have I missed the revolution (again ; -)?
