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
53/100From 16 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

The Laufenn S Fit AS is generally well-received as an economical budget-friendly tire that offers impressive comfort, low noise levels, and solid dry-road handling. However, user experiences are mixed due to notable criticisms regarding wet-weather traction—particularly as the tread wears—and occasional concerns surrounding sidewall durability and longevity.
Pros
- Exceptional value for the price compared to ultra-budget alternatives
- Very quiet and comfortable ride quality
- Good grip and handling in dry conditions
- Good roll and coasting efficiency
Cons
- Subpar wet-weather grip, with tendencies to lose traction easily under acceleration
- Wet performance degrades noticeably after 50% wear
- Concerns regarding rapid tread wear or limited lifespan
- Isolated reports of sidewall blistering and blowouts
Worth knowing
- Tesla Model Y RWD users noted that the instant high torque combined with these tires can result in significant traction loss in wet or greasy conditions.
- Heavier rear-wheel-drive sedans, like the Infiniti Q45 on 225/55ZR17 sizes, reported breaking traction easily from a dead stop when traction control is disabled.
