Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.
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
38/100From 68 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
60/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.
What owners like and dislike
Themes extracted from 68 owner reviews found online.
The Hifly HF805 is a polarizing budget-tier tire that receives highly inconsistent feedback, often depending on the vehicle type and driving environment. While many users praise its exceptional value and adequate performance in dry conditions, a significant portion of the user base reports serious concerns regarding wet-weather traction, rapid tread wear, and structural integrity issues such as sidewall failures.
Pros
- Highly competitive price point offering significant savings over premium brands
- Generally satisfactory handling and grip in dry road conditions
- Low road noise levels reported by many users
- Acceptable performance for daily, low-intensity commuting
Cons
- Poor wet-weather performance, including hydroplaning and extended braking distances
- Rapid and often uneven tread wear, leading to short service life
- Reports of structural defects, including sidewall bubbles, delamination, and splitting
- Lack of rim protection and soft sidewall construction
Worth knowing
- Users with high-torque vehicles or performance-oriented cars frequently report excessive wheel spin and traction control intervention.
- Heavy vehicles, such as vans and large sedans, often experience accelerated or uneven front-axle wear.
- Some users noted that the tire performs adequately on smaller, lighter vehicles but struggles significantly under the weight and power of larger, premium sedans.
