Between them, the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 and Gripmax Status AllClimate appear in 36 tests, though they have not yet met head-to-head in the same test. Head-to-head results carry the most weight here, because surface, weather and test car all change between events and make raw numbers from different tests hard to compare directly.

    How the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 performs. It takes the win in wet, snow, ice, mileage. Its overall Tire Lab Score is 93/100, based on 35 tests.

    How the Gripmax Status AllClimate performs. It takes the win in dry, noise / comfort, efficiency. Its overall Tire Lab Score is 78/100, based on 1 test.

    What this means for you. Category wins matter more than the overall score when your driving is weighted toward one condition — a wet-climate commuter should follow the wet braking column, while a high-mileage driver should follow wear and rolling resistance. Also check that both tires are actually offered in your size and load rating: performance can shift between sizes, and availability differs between the European and North American markets.

    Verdict

    The Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 is the stronger all-round choice, leading in wet and Tire Lab Score. The Gripmax Status AllClimate still wins on dry, making it the right pick if that matters most to you.
