The calculation on this page does not use these results: our check showed that a test in another size does not predict wet braking better than the EU label for your size. They are shown here as measured facts.

Frequently asked questions
What is the wet grip class of the Aplus AS909?
On the EU tyre label, the Aplus AS909 has wet grip class B to D, depending on the size. A is the best and E the worst. The difference between class A and class E is about 18 m of braking distance from 90 km/h on a wet road.
How long is the braking distance of the Aplus AS909 on a wet road?
According to the Pidurdusmaa.ee calculation, the Aplus AS909 175/65 R14 stops from 90 km/h on a wet road in about 48 metres (Hyundai i10 III (2019+), without reaction time). The calculation is based on an independent test.
Is the Aplus AS909 suitable for an Estonian winter?
Better suited to city driving. The Aplus AS909 is an all-season tyre, a compromise between summer and winter. On ice and snow it needs a longer braking distance than a Nordic friction or studded tyre.
How long is the braking distance of the Aplus AS909 on ice?
Based on an independent test, the Aplus AS909 175/65 R14 stops from 50 km/h on ice in about 105.4 metres (Hyundai i10 III (2019+), without reaction time). Calculated by Pidurdusmaa.ee with the same model as the calculator. Use the calculator to see the result for your own car.
Has the Aplus AS909 been independently tested?
Yes. Source: ADAC all-season tyre test 2025. The Aplus AS909 stopped on ice from 20 km/h in 14.7 m, ranking 2 of 16 tyres. All measured results are in the table above.
What sizes is the Aplus AS909 available in?
In the EU tyre register, our database has the Aplus AS909 in 93 sizes, for example 145/70 R13, 145/80 R13, 155/65 R13, 155/65 R14, 155/70 R13 and 155/80 R13. As a main factory size it fits cars such as the Audi A6 C9 (2025+), Audi Q3 III (2025+) and BMW iX3 NA5 (2025+).
