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 Sava Adapto Reviews

Given 100% while driving a Skoda (165/70 R13) on a combination of roads for 15,000 average miles

Given 47% while driving a Mitsubishi Lancer GLX (175/70 R13 T) on mostly town for 20 average miles
These tyres are dangerous in the wet. I unfortunately inherited a great car with these horrible tyres but they were almost new(DOT mid 2018). These are usable on dry, but as soon as the first raindrop hits the road in the summer, they are like ice. Heavy understeer in roundabouts over 30km/h which I consider unacceptable. One time I slid into an intersection breaking from 40km/h for 30m before the intersection. Scariest moment of my short driving career. One positive is that they're great for drifting, no joke, my friends didn't believe me you can drift in a FWD car, turns out you can with Adaptos. In the winter they get much better but still way bellow average. Just buy anything else, literally, it's your life on the line with these.. I would suggest these to my worst enemy or someone I want to get rid off legally.

Given 16% while driving a Peugeot 207 1.4 16v (185/65 R15 T) on a combination of roads for 10,000 spirited miles
Something the very worst, bad, the most insecure tire even seen in life! No grip in wet, in snow even, dry sad braking! To be forbidden, shocked!

Very good tyres in every conditions. I am very satisfied. This is the best choise for everyone who want to buy all season tyres. This word "Adapto" is the best word to describe behavior of these tyres on the every road!

Given 50% while driving a Volkswagen Golf (175/70 R13) on track for 10,000 average miles
Don't buy these tires. I don't know why would someone choose them in first place, price does not justify poor performance of these tires. I got "driving phobia" (if something like that exists), tires are very slipper that you can't relay on them when entering in to the curves (no matter when).

Bad attempt from Sava to make all season tires.

Given 28% while driving a Hyundai Accent (185/70 R13 T) on a combination of roads for 100 average miles
I had them on my ex car for about three weeks, buy them brand new and fit onto front set of wheels. Little rain on the road and I had a car accident. In my opinion, these tyres should not be sold to anyone. Only average of all Sava tyres are Eskimo S3, but nothing more than that.
