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.

The Insa Turbo EcoEvolution is a retreaded tyre that performed poorly across nearly all test categories. While the concept of reusing tyre carcasses is fundamentally sustainable, the execution failed to meet basic safety standards. The tyre exhibited extremely poor grip on both wet and dry roads with dangerously long braking distances. It showed unsafe, heavily understeering, and unpredictable handling dynamics. The tyre had poor construction quality with uneven surfaces causing vibrations and loud interior noise. Despite its low price, its extremely high rolling resistance caused over 10% increased fuel consumption. It failed the high-speed test and received a "deficient" overall rating with the recommendation not to use it on passenger cars.

Latest Insa Turbo EcoEvolution Reviews

Given 93% while driving a Vauxhall Corsa Sxi (195/55 R16 H) on mostly town for 1,000 easy going miles
If you are actually looking for mid-range priced tyre at a very low cost, then I highly recommend that you really consider purchasing remould / retread car tyres. Remould / retread tyres are made to high quality standards nowadays, and are both heavily tested and regulated by the ECE to ensure they are safe to use. These type of tyres are far more environmentally-friendly as well, when compared against the manufacturing process of a new car tyre.

Furthermore, remould / retread tyres function identically to newly manufactured tyres, and can, therefore, reach the same speeds as their brand new equivalents, at fraction of the price.

I always use to purchase the German made, King Meiler, all-season car remould tyres for my Corsa SXI, but as Insa Turbo now produce a summer season remould car tyre that actually fits my vehicle, then I have decided to switch to this particular Spanish brand instead.
