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.

The Neuton NT5000 is widely regarded as a high-value budget tire that frequently outperforms its price point, offering impressive dry grip and low road noise. While many users report excellent wet-weather performance, a notable minority of drivers experience significant traction loss in rain, suggesting inconsistent performance depending on vehicle setup or driving style.
Pros
- Exceptional value for money compared to premium brands
- Low road noise and high comfort levels
- Strong, protective sidewall design with rim flange guards
- Reliable and predictable dry-weather handling
Cons
- Inconsistent wet-weather traction and aquaplaning susceptibility
- Rapid shoulder wear reported by some users
- Noticeable performance drop-off as the tread depth decreases
- Occasional reports of quality control issues such as balancing difficulties or tread cracking
Worth knowing
- Users with high-torque or FWD vehicles frequently noted that the tires can struggle to put power down in the wet, leading to wheel spin.
- Drivers of heavier vehicles (e.g., SUVs, taxis) reported good durability and sidewall resilience against road hazards.
- Several users noted a 'break-in' period of approximately 5,000km where grip and steering sharpness were initially suboptimal.
