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
65/100From 36 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
65/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.

The Infinity Ecomax is widely regarded as a high-value budget tire that offers impressive performance-to-price ratios for daily driving. While some enthusiasts note limitations in sidewall stiffness and high-speed handling compared to premium brands, the majority of users report excellent noise levels, reliable wet and dry grip, and satisfactory longevity for the price point.
Pros
- Exceptional value for money compared to premium alternatives
- Low cabin noise levels
- Reliable dry and wet weather traction for daily commuting
- Good overall longevity for a budget-tier product
Cons
- Soft sidewalls can lead to a 'mushy' feel during spirited cornering
- Occasional reports of hydroplaning in heavy rain
- Inconsistent performance at very high speeds or under extreme lateral loads
- Firm ride quality when tires are cold
Worth knowing
- Users with high-torque or performance-oriented vehicles (e.g., BMW 1 Series, AMG models) occasionally reported a lack of stability or 'wandering' at high speeds.
- Drivers of heavier vehicles or those using wider tire profiles noted a higher susceptibility to hydroplaning.
- Owners of daily-driven sedans and SUVs (Audi A6, Porsche Cayenne) generally found the comfort and noise levels superior to or on par with more expensive OEM tires.
