2023 APAC Tyre Test

Top Tire Review is a relatively new website, similar to Tyre Reviews (not affiliated), operating in the Asian Pacific (APAC) region, which have different tyre patterns to Europe and North America.

In spite of being a relatively new organisation, they have already conducted their first Asian Pacific tyre test, testing six region specific patterns!

You can check out the data from the test below, but we strongly suggest heading over to the full article on Top Tire Review.
