What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

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.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 5 owner reviews found online.

The Advanta HPZ 02 elicits a mixed response from users, offering commendable value, dry grip, and handling performance that impresses many drivers initially. However, durability concerns such as sidewall bubbling temper its overall appeal, particularly under demanding conditions.

Pros

  • Fabulous value and affordability for the price point
  • Surprinsingly good dry and wet grip for a standard road tire
  • Sharp handling and competent everyday performance

Cons

  • Durability issues, specifically sidewall bubbling reported on low-profile sizes
  • Potential vibration and structural integrity concerns under certain vehicle setups

Worth knowing

  • Users running low-profile sizes (such as 245/30/22 on lowered vehicles) reported susceptibility to sidewall bubbles.
  • EV owners (such as those driving a Polestar 2) noted surprisingly good handling and dry grip over thousands of miles of mixed spring and autumn driving.
