“Tried it out on 205/55R16 Grip wise, feels like similar grip level as previous Tyres. Quite good on dry, quick lane switch wun feel the Tyre wall lembeh over. Dry brake is good. Haven't test wet perf much yet. Noise, is abit similar to previous Tyre, maybe just slightly noiser. Comfort wise, is on the comfy side. FC wise, slightly worse than previous Tyre. Good replacement for economic call I feel from price per overall offering perspective Those who want a comfy n quiet ride, can consider this Tyre”

“Found a cut on one of my tires, is it 100% cooked? Three month old Hankook Ventus Prime 4 and I found a cut/split. It’s holding air fine but it is cooked?”

How do we compare tires?
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.
