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, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews

The Achilles 122 is widely regarded as a high-value budget tire that delivers surprising levels of comfort, low noise, and durability for daily driving.

- High level of ride comfort and low road noise
- Surprisingly durable tread life
- Adequate grip for daily commuting
Cons
- Concerns regarding sidewall durability
- Inconsistent performance on poor or damaged road surfaces

Worth knowing
- Users running stretched fitments on 15-inch wheels reported excellent tread longevity despite aggressive camber settings.
