The Evergreen EU72 is a highly polarizing budget tire that divides opinion between those who find it a cost-effective alternative to premium brands and those who report significant safety concerns. While many users praise its dry-weather grip, comfort, and value, a substantial segment of reviewers highlights dangerous handling characteristics in wet conditions and inconsistent quality control.

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 49 owner reviews found online.

The Evergreen EU72 is a highly polarizing budget tire that divides opinion between those who find it a cost-effective alternative to premium brands and those who report significant safety concerns. While many users praise its dry-weather grip, comfort, and value, a substantial segment of reviewers highlights dangerous handling characteristics in wet conditions and inconsistent quality control.

Pros

  • Excellent value for money compared to premium brands
  • Strong dry-weather grip and handling
  • Low road noise levels reported by many users
  • Good tread longevity for some driving styles

Cons

  • Unpredictable or poor wet-weather traction
  • Soft sidewalls leading to instability and poor steering feedback
  • Inconsistent quality control and premature tread wear
  • Significant noise issues reported after initial break-in period

Worth knowing

  • Drivers of heavier vehicles or those with high-performance setups frequently reported instability and 'squelching' sensations due to soft sidewalls.
  • Users with spirited driving styles or high-torque vehicles noted faster-than-expected tread wear and traction control intervention.
  • Some owners of premium vehicles (e.g., Audi, Mercedes) expressed dissatisfaction with the loss of handling precision compared to original equipment tires.
