“No rub even at full lock? My AT3s rub ever so slightly”
“Reifenbeschädigung im Albanien Urlaub. Noch okay oder Reifenwechsel nötig? Sind in Albanien und recht viel Offroad unterwegs (gewesen). Sind nur noch wenig Tage hier und fahren voraussichtlich keine schwierigen Strecken mehr. Heute hab ich diese Beschädigung am linken Hinterreifen entdeckt. Es handelt sich den General Grabber AT3, die Reifenflanke sollte eigentlich recht stark sein. Bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich mir wegen des Schadens Sorgen machen sollte oder so ohne große Bedenken weiterfahren kann. Würde mich daher über ein paar Meinungen freuen. Danke im Voraus!”

I just had them rotated, tires were at 5/32 left, not quite to the bars. So I should get another 10,000 out of them, but they will be into the bars by then. I have noticed about the last 2000 miles, they are getting feathered and they are getting loud. I will see how much of it I can take before changing. But, I love them and they do look awesome!”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
