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
48/100From 19 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

The Barum Bravuris is a polarizing budget-tier tire that generally performs adequately for daily commuting and dry-weather driving but struggles significantly under spirited or high-performance conditions. While some users appreciate its value and longevity, a substantial portion of the user base reports poor wet-weather traction and inconsistent handling characteristics, particularly regarding sidewall stiffness.
Pros
- High value for the price point
- Acceptable dry-weather grip and stability
- Reasonable road noise levels
- Good straight-line performance at highway speeds
Cons
- Poor wet-weather traction and braking performance
- Vague steering feedback and soft sidewall construction
- Inconsistent tread life, with reports of premature wear
- Lack of confidence during cornering and aggressive maneuvers
Worth knowing
- High-powered vehicles frequently report traction issues, with users noting the tire cannot adequately manage torque in wet conditions.
- Drivers of front-wheel-drive vehicles noted significant understeer and traction control intervention when cornering in the wet.
- Some users reported that maintaining higher inflation pressures (e.g., 40psi) slightly improved steering precision.
