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 73% while driving a Mazda RX7 Turbo II (225/55 R16 W) on a combination of roads for 2,500 spirited miles
Car is on 15% harder than standard sprining and Tokico dampers.
Driver has a motorsport license. Mixture motorway/freeway and country roads.
Driver likes corners and braking.
Car is light on tyres, 1250kg and 50:50.
Expected 8000 miles got 19000!
Until rubber was 50% worn these are very noisy tyres..or maybe I got used to them.
Dry grip was great, wet was good enough until down to last 2mm.
Replaced them with Toyo T1Rs...even after 500miles and 4-5 heat cycles UNDERSTEER CITY!!!

Would definitely look to their range again once I've disposed of the T1Rs

Given 82% while driving a Chevrolet camaro (265/40 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
Excellent tyre which having been used on a heavy powerful car stood up well, dry grip is good, not relly used in the wet, wearing well for what i thought was a soft tyre. not too expensive either !
