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.

16th/18
The Norauto Prevensys 4 achieves an "adequate" overall rating, primarily due to its weak performance in driving safety, particularly on dry roads. Despite a "good" rating on wet roads and a "good" score for environmental performance, its dry road shortcomings limit the overall result. On dry roads, it exhibits significant weaknesses, losing performance with increasing temperature, providing poor feedback, and responding slowly to steering inputs, leading to unstable handling and oversteer. Its braking distance is good. On wet roads, it achieves a "good" overall rating with slightly above-average braking and slightly below-average handling, allowing for safe and mostly precise control. It narrowly misses "good" ratings for aquaplaning resistance. Its environmental performance is "good," with good projected mileage, abrasion, and efficiency.

Given 87% while driving a Hyundai elantra (195/60 R15) on a combination of roads for 20,000 average miles
Excellent tire. In the rain, the water flow is impressive. Dry is also good.
