Tire Rack's survey results are tabulated from the responses of our customers and website visitors. If you would like to document your tire experiences and contribute to the survey, you can do so by completing our online form. We welcome your input.
Performance traits are rated from "0" to "10," with "0" considered unacceptable and "10" considered excellent. While many of the categories are self-explanatory, a color key and brief glossary of terms are shown below to help you interpret results.
Rates dry traction when accelerating, braking and cornering.
Rates wet traction when accelerating, braking and cornering.
Rates the tire's resistance to hydroplaning. Hydroplaning occurs when the tire's tread design can't evacuate the water encountered while driving at speed. The resulting wedge of water lifts the tire and prevents it from maintaining contact with the road.
Rates traction when accelerating, braking and cornering in shallow (up to about 4 inches), powder snow.
Rates traction when accelerating, braking and cornering in deep (more than about 4 inches), powder snow.
Rates traction when accelerating, braking and cornering on ice, as well as recently plowed, hard-packed snow.
Rates the tire's stability when cornering. How predictably it maintains the driver's input.
Rates the tire's steering responsiveness. How quickly it follows the driver's steering input.
Rates the tire's smoothness and ride comfort.
Rates the noise level and tone(s) generated by the tire.
Rates quickness of wear based on the driver's expectations.
The total miles covered by all the survey respondents with this model of tire. High numbers indicate a high number of people responding to the survey.
