The RoadX RXMOTION U11 is a polarizing budget-tier tire that is frequently criticized for its poor performance in wet and cold conditions. While many users praise its exceptional longevity and low price point, a significant portion of reviewers report dangerous handling characteristics, including unpredictable loss of traction and poor feedback in non-dry environments.

Owners rate it 19.5 points lower than the instrumented road tests do — see the two score breakdowns below for where they disagree.

RoadX RXMOTION U11

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.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 40 owner reviews found online.

The RoadX RXMOTION U11 is a polarizing budget-tier tire that is frequently criticized for its poor performance in wet and cold conditions. While many users praise its exceptional longevity and low price point, a significant portion of reviewers report dangerous handling characteristics, including unpredictable loss of traction and poor feedback in non-dry environments.

Pros

  • Exceptional tread longevity and durability
  • Very affordable price point
  • Acceptable performance for casual, dry-weather city driving
  • Aesthetically pleasing sidewall design

Cons

  • Severely compromised grip in wet and damp conditions
  • Poor performance and traction in temperatures below 10°C
  • High levels of road noise and harsh ride quality
  • Lack of rim protection leading to curb damage vulnerability

Worth knowing

  • Users with heavy SUVs (e.g., BMW X5) reported that proper balancing and correct tire pressure are critical to mitigating initial vibration issues.
  • Drivers of high-torque or performance-oriented vehicles frequently noted excessive wheel spin and traction control intervention.
  • Some users noted that the tire's stiff compound leads to a 'crashy' ride quality, particularly noticeable on vehicles with lower-profile tires.
