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 53% while driving a Alfa Romeo Giulia q4 2.0T 280+ (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 3,000 spirited miles
Really weak tyres, car came with them but I'm dying to replace them once they wear more. i can feel the car is so much more capable than what these provide. Only plus point is the wear and the road noise, but for performance there are so many better

Given 10% while driving a Audi A4 2.0 TDI 140 SLine (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 12,000 easy going miles
The worst tyre even known - within 12K kilometre driven on a car Audi A4 has shows dangerous bulges all over tyres (10-12) in all 4 tyres. Driven in bangalore city india. Pirelli support team in india shamelessly says its damaged. Yes its damaged so I am complaining right . How can 4 tyres go bad with 12k KM even you ride in mountains /Rocks or off road. Audi A 4 cannot be driven even on a small hump due to less road clearance.

Given 81% while driving a Audi A3 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 1,500 miles
These tyres came fitted as factory standard on a 2015 Audi A3 2.0 TDI sedan. They're comfortable. Not too noisy. Decent feedback. No drama in hard braking. Car remains stable and no skidding. But the Audi has great brakes and stability control. I've driven through reasonably heavy storms and never had aquaplaning. No droning on rough or smooth or cement roads. (South Africa has some great and terrible pot holed roads.) I like the sidewall design. Looks posh. They aren't sports tyres more touring. And in the cold (under 2 degrees C) they lack grip but when warmed they're good. No scary or unpredictable behavior. I can see why threyre homologated by so many manufacturers. I have just bought another two new P7 Cinturato in 225 45 R 17 91Y for my Audi. They're sort of like the Goodyear NCT5 of their era. Fitted to many cars and sort of a jack of all trades. I recommend the the P7 Ecoimpact.

Latest Pirelli Cinturato P 7 Ecoimpact Reviews

Given 49% while driving a Volvo V40 T3 Cross country (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 7,500 average miles
Pirelli Cinturato P7 Ecoimpact were fitted to car when I bought it. I've found that they readily lose grip on: drain covers, smooth tarmac, tarmac sealant and smooth concrete such as multi-storey car parks. I feel I can't trust these tyres on corners. I cannot recommend these tyres and will replace with another brand. I've driven V40's with Michelins and Continentals, they handle better than these. Avoid.

Not a comfortable tyre. Tend to lose grip on very smooth dry tarmac, though strangely not bad in wet, Car came with them, will replace with another brand when they wear.

After Yokohama Advan A-460 tires greatly very soft, like my Michelin winter, only softer! Delayed and reduced steering response, bad information is transmitted to the asphalt on the steering wheel. There is a sense that reduces the dynamic acceleration. And the wheels in black and brown color! But the road keeps excellent, on a mountain road in the corners comes confidence, does not heel. Inflate they need stronger. Wheels are ideal for cars with stiffer suspension, for beginners and seniors. There is a desire to sell these wheels, but is too lazy to head to fool yourself.

Given 86% while driving a Audi A4 2.0 TDi 170 S Line (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 10,000 average miles
Very good tyres, came in at a great price. Very comfortable, noise levels are fine, too. Great grip in the dry, progressive and direct. In the wet they are good too, but beware of ponds as they don't cope perfect with aquaplaning (compared to previous Contis Sportcontact 5.) They look cool too, in my opinion, and the wear till now is very good. All in all, a good package for enjoyable ride.
