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.
By owner reviews
32/100From 6 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
What owners like and dislike
Themes extracted from 6 owner reviews found online.
The Lassa Impetus Sport receives predominantly negative feedback from users, who frequently cite poor traction in both wet and dry conditions. While the tire is noted for its durability and longevity, most drivers find the performance compromises—specifically regarding road noise and safety—to be unacceptable for daily use.
Pros
- High tread longevity and wear resistance
- Affordable price point
- Stable cornering performance under specific conditions
Cons
- Extremely poor wet weather traction and hydroplaning resistance
- High levels of road noise and low ride comfort
- Inconsistent dry grip and tendency to slip under acceleration
- Negative impact on fuel efficiency
Worth knowing
- Users driving performance-oriented vehicles, such as the Mazda RX8, reported more favorable handling characteristics compared to standard passenger car users.
- Drivers transitioning from premium performance tires, such as the Goodyear Eagle F1, expressed significant dissatisfaction with the Lassa's grip levels.
