How it did in road tests
No owner reviews yet, so every score here comes from instrumented road tests.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, it uses that one.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each score is scaled across every tested tire: the average tire gets 70, the best 100. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we analysed (5 stars = 100), weighted by how many reviews each site gave us.
- Retailer ratings
- Each site's own average, over all the reviews it lists — usually more than we analysed, so it can differ from our owner score.
By road tests
56/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.
