Goodride Solmax 1

Summer
Lowcost
3.3 /10 Conditionally recommended

Goodride is a Chinese budget brand and the Solmax 1 is their freshest entry into the European market. The test results don't paint a great picture — 8th at Autobild and 11th at Tyre Reviews, with wet braking and aquaplaning resistance as clear weak spots. It is notably quiet, which makes it a reasonable pick for EV drivers on a tight budget, but for a tyre introduced in 2025, falling short on wet safety is not where you want to be.
