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.

Given 40% while driving a Volkswagen CC (230/40 R18) on for 10,000 miles

Given 20% while driving a Audi A5 2.0TFSI Quattro (245/40 R18 W) on mostly motorways for 2,000 spirited miles
Do NOT buy these! I've used budget tyres before, mostly because I can't drive worn or 7+ year old tyres due to safety and the law! These were horrible in just about every way, they overheat way too easily and loose traction whenever you try to do a quick maneuver, they aren't track tyres but not being able to turn in roundabouts??? Come on! And the mpgs you're getting is just as bad as sport tyres with a lot of rolling resistance. The noise is the worst part though... They're way too loud, I've used tyres with 73 db rating and they seemed quieter.

Much better wetgrip than Linglong GM and enough overall quality to satisfy for the price.

Given 90% while driving a Ford Galaxy (235/45 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 39 easy going miles
I bought my used Galaxy 2 years ago and it needed tyres. Local dealer recommended Nordexx. Driving on Irish back roads and M50 motorway, these tyres have done OK for the money. I had them rotated every service and now 38,920 miles - the 4 are off. I don't drive or brake hard. I'm more into mpg now than 0-60. At have the price of Michelin- I'm like buying one, getting one FREE!

Given 73% while driving a Honda Prelude 2.2vtec (195/45 R16 V) on mostly country roads for 3,000 spirited miles
Overall not a bad tyre for the price. I drove these hard on a combination of city and country roads. Their dry grip was impressive, they held down my power fairly well. Cornering speeds were good. Negative camber contributed to short life span. Wet weather grip was average, expected for the price.

Given 57% while driving a Renault Clio IV TCe 90 (205/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 10,000 spirited miles
Cheap, terrible. Too soft at high speed. Hankooks much better except wear.

Given 73% while driving a BMW 335i (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 4,000 average miles
Good tires, especially cosidering the price point. Silent, good grip on wet, average grip on dry, soft sidewall, so handling is not as precise as premium tires. Would definatelly buy them again, but only on an average passenger car, not something powerfull.

vibrates, vobbling etc

Given 55% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 3 se turbo 185 bhp (235/35 R19) on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
I would usually go for a branded tyre, A or B rating in the wet but i was talked into these Nordex by a tyre dealer. Now for a normal everyday driver these tyres would be perfect but im a man who enjoys driving and i will never put these tyres on my car again. In the wet they are god awful and in the dry they squeal when turning.

Audi A4 (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
Poor tyre all round, doesn't give you satisfaction when driving due to the noise they make. Was highly recommended from the tyre centre but was very disappointed with the tyre noise and also the wet grip from roundabouts overall very poor tyre!

Given 10% while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTi Mk5 (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 600 spirited miles
Got these tyres on advice from a tyre dealer who obviously gave the wrong advice, I have a golf gti and I nearly crashed twice, wet grip is terrible when taking corners, also road noise is very loud, if you want to stay alive do not buy these tyres
