The Tyre Reviews Score is the most comprehensive tyre scoring system available. It aggregates professional test data from multiple independent publications, user reviews, and consistency analysis using Bayesian statistical methods, weighted normalisation, and recency-adjusted scoring to produce a single, reliable performance rating.

Methodology & Configuration
Scoring Process
  1. Collect Test Data: Gather results from professional tyre tests across multiple publications. Minimum 1 test(s) required.
  2. Normalize Positions: Convert test positions to percentile scores using exponential weighting (factor: 1.2).
  3. Apply Recency Weighting: More recent tests are weighted higher with a decay rate of 0.95.
  4. Incorporate User Reviews: Factor in user review data (minimum 5 reviews). Weight: 15%.
  5. Bayesian Smoothing: Apply Bayesian prior (score: 7, weight: 1.5) to prevent extreme scores with limited data.
  6. Calculate Final Score: Combine all components using normalization factor of 1.1. Max score with limited data: 9.5.

Given 10% while driving a Honda Accord (205/60 R16) on mostly motorways for 0 average miles
Well they hold air that's about the last of the positives. Cold weather there turn to lego plastic and slip slid all over. Make sure life insurance is paid up

Given 86% while driving a Honda Accord (205/55 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 18,000 easy going miles
Really quite impressive for £40 tyre, had 4 fitted late 2018 15 months later still on car no punctures or damage plenty tread life even where, very quiet. Tyres to me are quite boring items for me they are black round and save your life, that's as exciting as it gets for me. For the price these are impressive tyres given that they have done nearly 18,000 miles to date, why pay more I don't really understand why people buy expensive tyres when you can get good value Budget tyres that do the job.

Given 40% while driving a Mercedes Benz C220 CDI Blue Eff. (205/55 R16 V) on mostly town for 11,000 easy going miles
The grip in the dry is poor. Even worse in the wet. The positive -- they are slow to wear out - I ended up getting them off the car after about 11,000 miles, which was well before they were worn out

Given 67% while driving a Ford Mondeo estate (205/55 R16 H) on a combination of roads for 8,000 average miles
Grip as you would expect for the price and similar to competing budget brands. Durability unbelievably good. Wear reasonably even but heavily reliant on correct inflation. Tread patten similar to a premium brand. Better than Federal. Never had a problem in wet fields with caravan.
