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 Sailun Iceblazer Alpine Evo Reviews

Given 73% while driving a Mercedes Benz E350 CDI Coupé 231hp (235/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
After few thousands kilometers and all kinds of weather i have the next impressions: dry handling is nothing special, not unsafe but could be better; dry braking is excellent; on wet weather its quite the opposite - wet handling is amazing (really strange) and wet braking is bad. On snowy conditions, it handles good but braking could be better. Comfort is good, road noise is also good. Rolling resistance (fuel efficiency) - good.

Amazing tyres, I changed them from weared out Michelin X-ice xi3(soft rubber) to these(harder rubber) and what I can say they are amazing, in average I would give Michelin 7 stars and 9 stars to Sailun. I drove my car with Michelin for 6 years, It was average for ice, but not very good for very snowy or wet roads. Sailun was amazing in rough rainy and very snowy roads when driving was very difficult, so they are much better. For ice i would say they are same. I would recommend to choose Sailun, they are very good at their price. I only drived 1 year with Sailuns, so I can't discuss about wearing as Michelins lasted 6 years in average snow/rain performance.. :) I would choose these tyres again 100%

Given 90% while driving a BMW 520d (225/55 R17) on for 12,000 miles
Fited on Bmw F10, RWD. Best on snow. id buy them again over and over. best budget tyre

Given 71% while driving a Tesla Model S (245/45 R19) on mostly motorways for 2,000 easy going miles
Not bad for a low budget Chinese winter tire. There's a slight pitching notice at speeds above 90km/h, which is obviously more noticeable because I drive an electric car. But it's not that bad, and quite bearable. Rolling resistance is decent. Feedback not that good, and steering response is a bit slow. But for a set of 19" that costed 360e, you cannot really complain, no? If they can last for two seasons, I'd say it's absolutely best bang for the buck on the market right now.

Given 90% while driving a Mercedes Benz (235/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 200 average miles
Really good tire, very comfortable, grip is great, road noise is low, efficiency is good. Handling, when compared to the wintercontact ts 850 p is slightly worse, but only marginally, and the comfort is so much better, which is more important to me. They are about three times less expensive than the continental and about 2,5 times less expensive than the ultragrip perfomance 3. They are really worth it, if they can last at least 40 000 km, i will be very pleased. The climate i live in does not get a lot of snow or ice, maybe few days in the year so i can't comment on snow/ice grip but for these colder dry conditions, everything has been almost perfect.
would recommend if you want quality for a fraction of premium

Excellent tire for little money, I will buy the same tires again. Good handling and grip on dry and wet roads. Good driving in snow and ice.

Great tyres, premium tyres should lower the money value to their tyres (5 to 6 times exspensive) than this tyres. Great job Sailun, keep the good work...

Very good tyres! They have amazing grip on cold wet roads, as well as very good braking. Some may find them a bit noisy, but who drives a car without music? To be honest they have exceeded my expectations. Extremely good value for money ratio. Good performance winter tyre! Chinese are advancing with their tyres.
