The Evergreen ES82 receives polarized and highly inconsistent reviews from users, ranging from exceptional longevity and surprisingly decent all-weather performance to catastrophic failures and severe safety concerns. While a few drivers reported impressive mileage and adequate grip in rain and snow, multiple users experienced rapid wear, uneven tread degradation, structural failures, and dangerously poor traction on both wet and dry surfaces.

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.

The Evergreen ES82 receives polarized and highly inconsistent reviews from users, ranging from exceptional longevity and surprisingly decent all-weather performance to catastrophic failures and severe safety concerns.

Pros

  • Surprising durability and high mileage reported by select users
  • Adequate wet and snow traction for budget-conscious drivers

  • Cost-effective alternative for budget buyers

Cons

  • Extremely fast and uneven tread wear
  • Dangerous handling and poor grip on wet and dry roads

  • Low-quality rubber compound leading to pieces tearing off the tread

Worth knowing
