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.

Top 3 Kenda Komet SPT 1 KR10 Reviews

Given 77% while driving a Holden Calais 2003 (225/50 R16 V) on mostly country roads for 15,000 average miles
Great grip in the dry and have at least half of the tread left after 25 thousand kilometers. Tyre noise is average and nothing unusual compared to others I've used, comfortable in 225/50r16 running at 40psi even on roads that have a lot of repairs, cracks and dips. Wet grip is acceptable but could be better, does slide a bit if you take roundabouts or corners with speed in the rain or on a fast takeoff, just learn to drive within its limits when its wet

Holden (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 10,000 spirited miles
For a cheap second grade tyre I found them above average.
My car was being modified and was off the road for 3years, when I got the car back the tyres still performed well, in fact they are still on now.
I drive a 430bhp V8 and they do a pretty good job in the dry, however they offer poor grip in the wet, the only drawback I find with them.
Will definitely consider buying them again.

Given 87% while driving a Holden 2005 VZ V6 Commodore Executive (235/45 R17 V) on mostly country roads for 4,500 spirited miles
Stuck to the road in all conditions, paired with a wide track these tires are absolutely brilliant. 10,000 km highway, sub-standard roads, dirt: I thought for sure I'd have some form of grief with them, but they're built to last and perform.

Given 76% while driving a Mitsubishi 380 (215/55 R17) on a combination of roads for 60 average miles
Just clocked over 100,000 k's, brilliant wearing as long as you rotate.Probably get another 5 - 10,000 k's out of them.

Not a great tyre, cheap buy grip wasn't great on tight roundabouts or in wet.

Given 76% while driving a Porsche 944 (215/65 R15 V) on mostly town for 0 average miles
Did 20.000kms on them and they still have plenty of 1000's of miles to go! Very good in dry...the size of the tyres was bdaly chosen since it gave a very 'baloony' drive to my Porsche 944. However they wear brilliantly since they were subject to a lot of grippy conrnering! In the wet they were poor...although a 944 RWD will never be great in the wet but the tyres could grip better I thought. For the price I believe they are very good value for money!
