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
67/100From 209 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

Pros
- Excellent grip and handling in both dry and wet conditions
- Low road noise and quiet operation suitable for EVs
- Responsive steering with solid cornering stability and short braking distances
- Good overall value and efficiency for electric vehicles
Cons
- High purchase price relative to some expectations
- Rapid tread wear reported by some high-torque EV drivers
- Stiffer ride quality that can feel bouncy or noisy on rough roads
- Occasional complaints about susceptibility to punctures or cuts on rural roads
Worth knowing
- Tesla Model Y and Model 3 owners frequently note that the instant torque of the vehicle can overwhelm the tires in the wet or accelerate tread wear, though many still achieve respectable mileage between 35,000 and 57,000 km.
- Drivers of heavy EVs appreciate the stable handling and low noise levels, though a few found the tires less forgiving on rough or unpaved secondary roads.
