The Firestone Multiseason 2 tire has received mixed reviews in various tests conducted by AutoBild. Some commonly mentioned positive qualities include good traction and short braking distances on snow, dynamic wet handling, short dry braking distances, and high mileage. The tire has also been praised for its excellent price-performance ratio.
Despite these positive qualities, there have been some concerns raised about the tire's performance in certain conditions. In tests conducted with 205/55 R16 and 195/55 R16 tire dimensions, AutoBild noted that the tire demonstrated only average safety reserves during aquaplaning situations.

In the case of the 195/55 R16 tire dimension, AutoBild also observed an extended dry braking distance. Overall, the Firestone Multiseason 2 tire has demonstrated a variety of positive qualities, but its performance in certain conditions, such as aquaplaning, might be a point of concern for some drivers.
Firestone Multiseason 2 is made in 52 sizes, starting from 155/65 R13 up to 255/55 R18.
