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

The Kelly Edge A/S is positioned as a budget-friendly all-season tire that delivers solid dry handling and high value for everyday commuters, though it receives heavily polarized feedback regarding its long-term durability and wet/winter performance. While many users praise its comfortable ride and affordable price point, a significant number of reviewers report rapid tread wear well below the warranty limit and poor traction in adverse weather conditions.
Pros
- Exceptional value and affordable price point compared to major brand competitors
- Comfortable, smooth ride quality on dry pavement
- Good dry handling and confident steering feel for daily driving
- Acceptable road noise levels when new
Cons
- Premature tread wear, with multiple users reporting significant wear or baldness well under 20,000 miles despite rotations
- Subpar wet weather performance and a tendency to hydroplane or slip during cornering and acceleration in the rain
- Poor traction in snow and ice, making them unreliable for harsh winter climates
- Increased road noise as the tires wear past the halfway mark of their lifespan
Worth knowing
- Heavier vehicles like SUVs (such as the Ford Escape, Ford Edge, and Lincoln) appear more susceptible to pronounced road noise over time and rapid tread degradation.
- Sedans and commuter cars driven conservatively see the best balance of comfort and value, while higher-torque driving styles frequently lead to complaints about slip and premature wear.
