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.

What owners like and dislike
Themes extracted from 70 owner reviews found online.
Reviewers on the Radar RPX800+ are overwhelmingly positive, with most awarding 4 or 5 stars and praising its grip, low road noise and confident all-weather behaviour. A small minority report concerns about rapid wear and winter confidence, but these are isolated against a largely satisfied consensus.
Pros
- Strong grip in wet and dry conditions, with several users citing confident handling and secure emergency stops
- Low to average road noise, described as quiet by multiple reviewers
- Capable all-weather performance, including sun, rain, mud, dirt tracks and snow
- Good longevity and tread life reported by several owners, including one who found them to wear less than original-fit tyres
- Feel safe and stable, with some noting improved handling over previous tyres
Cons
- One reviewer reported very rapid wear, with tyres 2mm from the legal limit after just over 2,000 miles
- One reviewer expressed anxiety about winter driving, giving a 1-star rating without elaboration
- Some reviewers have limited experience with the tyre (early days or little snow exposure), so long-term and severe-winter performance is not fully established
- Lukewarm feedback from a few reviewers, including one who described them as merely a spare tyre and others who said it was too early to tell
Worth knowing
- Vehicle and size data were not provided in the reviews, so size-specific conclusions cannot be drawn.
- A Subaru owner of 35 years judged them as good as original-equipment tyres and apparently longer-wearing, while a BMW F25 X3 owner reported improved handling despite being warned the tyre might be unsuitable.
- A user carrying a lot of weight on their car reported plenty of tread remaining after a year, contrasting with the single report of fast wear.
