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 9 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
60/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.
What owners like and dislike
Themes extracted from 9 owner reviews found online.
The Tomket Sport Series 1 is generally perceived as an exceptional budget-friendly option that delivers impressive grip in both wet and dry conditions, often outperforming or rivaling much more expensive premium brands in comfort and noise levels. However, user consensus highlights that this strong performance comes at the cost of accelerated tread wear, with multiple drivers noting a relatively soft rubber compound.
Pros
- Exceptional value for money compared to premium brand alternatives
- Strong dry and wet grip performance
- Low noise levels and enhanced ride comfort
- Good overall handling characteristics
Cons
- Rapid tread wear and shorter overall lifespan
- Softer compound leads to quicker-than-expected mileage degradation
- Initial shallow tread depth reported by some users
Worth knowing
- Users fitted with smaller or standard vehicles (such as a Mini S, BMW E46 325Ci, and Skoda Fabia) find the handling and pricing highly attractive.
- Higher-mileage users and rear-fitment applications (like a Suzuki Vitara) noted substantial wear around 15,000 miles, indicating they wear relatively quickly under normal use.
