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.

Review Summary

Based on 18 user reviews

For the Zeta Alventi, drivers report a polarized experience. Many budget-focused users praise strong wet and dry grip, low noise, and exceptional tread life/value, with several high-score reviews citing tens of thousands of trouble-free kilometers. However, a significant number of low-score reviews complain of poor handling stability, tramlining, and serious safety concerns (splits/ripping), along with some reports of rapid wear and noise. Overall sentiment is mixed, skewing slightly negative given frequency and severity of the negatives, but high-scoring reviews highlight strong value when used sensibly.

Strengths
  • Good wet grip
  • Decent dry grip
  • Low noise (some users)
  • Excellent tread life for price (some report very high mileage)
  • Strong value for money
Areas for Improvement
  • Unsafe handling/tramlining at speed
  • Poor wet traction for some users
  • Premature wear for some applications
  • Reports of tyre splitting/ripping
  • Excessive road noise (noted by several users)

Given 92% while driving a Audi SQ5 (255/40 R21) on mostly town for 10 average miles
I was offered these tires that I didn't know on my Audi SQ5 and I have already driven one season with them. I was surprised because what I had before were
d Pirelli Scorpion of the same size and they performed very well, even at high speeds. Still on the Alventi Zeta, I'm going to undertake a second
summer season with these tires and they still look like new after about ten thousand kilometers they particularly surprised me during a trip to Mauricie where I had to drive almost the entire journey in heavy rain, which is why I highly recommend them in the rain.

I nearly died this is the 2nd set that have split in the same exact way. I gave the brand a second chance never again.

Given 76% while driving a BMW 3 series (265/30 R19) on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
These tires feel quite grippy around corners and sharper turns, even during rain it never felt like they were about to lose grip while driving around a bendy road. I have never tried them on gravel or any other unpaved road simply because the side wall is a little small and I don't want to get my rims scratched up. But other than that I like these tires, the road feedback is there, sometimes a little too much feedback depending on the road.

Its a no for me if they gone/old Goodyear is going back on

Given 94% while driving a SEAT Toledo (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 13,000 average miles
i had Pirelli tyres fitted from new on my car and these lasted 35000 miles tread was great, good fuel low noise, good grip/ dry and wet, however side walls cracked on all four after 3yrs so was advised to change. I read reviews on the Zeta Aventi so tried them out,, half the cost of Pirelli and im now at 48000 miles and the tyres are still like new. Zeta was never known to me in the past but i would even say they are better handling, less noise than Pirelli, only down side to these tyres is the fuel economy, i am down around 4 mpg saying this i will only buy these tyres for all of my vehicles if they have the size.
4.5 / 5, FIRST CLASS tyre top end budget, but almost on par with top brand tyres for at least half the price..

Given 65% while driving a Holden Commodore VE (225/60 R16) on mostly town for 4,000 average miles
These were new replacement tyres on a vehicle I bought- all in all for a budget tyre they are ok- handling in wet and dry seems sufficient Don't know about longevity yet They are a harder compound so not the softest ride , but not awful Worth a try if you don't want to break the bank

Given 53% while driving a Land Rover All new Discovery (225/45 R17) on for 3,000 miles
This is my second set of Zeta Azura Tyres. The first set were OK - good value for the money. This new set (exactly the same) are extremely noisy. I've only done a few thousand k's and they are driving me nuts. Will replace all 4 within the next month or 2. Sorry but be careful.

BMW E63 645Ci (275/35 R19) on mostly motorways for 500 average miles
Crap tyres. I put a pair on the rear of my e64 BMW and its weaving around and following the road camber at every opportunity. Even changing lanes is a hairy experience. At speeds over 60MPH, the car tries to step out of line without any driver input. They are in my opinion dangerous tyres if used by an inexperienced driver

Given 34% while driving a Ford Kuga (235/55 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 25,000 average miles
Fitted to the front on a Ford Kuga AWD when purchased, the general handling is very poor the steering pulls with every undulations in the road even as small as crossing a white line. I can feel the wheel spin and the AWD react when accelerating away from traffic lights or exiting a bend or roundabout this is even worse on a wet road, if the car was front or rear wheel drive only they would be dangerous, an inexperienced driver would have difficulty handling the car in these circumstances.
Do not buy them

Given 96% while driving a Mercedes Benz CLK 320 Coupe (225/40 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 7,000 easy going miles
Driven quite happily on these for 10 months. The review is based on their cost and value for money. Driven sensibly these are spot on. Still plenty of tread left. Car is a 3 litre diesel remapped to 290 bhp with 463 torque. Types always feel quite safe. Cheap and cheerful I would have no problem buying these again.

Given 98% while driving a Volkswagen Tdi 4 motion (235/55 R17) on a combination of roads for 15,000 average miles
These tyres were fitted new when i bought the Tiguan second hand at 12,000 miles. I'm now at 30,000 and I think the fronts need replacing. The car has plenty of grunt, and I drive rapidly,but never "on the limit" They have never given me any worries. The car is 4 wheel drive so presume that helps. I have had to brake hard on the odd occasion,but have never locked up or skidded so can't fault them really.

Given 23% while driving a Skoda Octavia vRS (225/45 R18 W) on mostly country roads for 5,000 average miles
DO NOT BUY THESE! These are by far the worst tyre I have ever had on my cars. I have managed 5000 in four months, plenty of tread left but they are ripping apart on the face of the tyre. I was lucky not to have a blow out and cause serious injury. These tyres were on new when I bought the car.

Quiet tire, handles well. Feels good in the rain. Little spongy in the corners. The biggest problem with these tires is they don't last too much, but they are wonderful for the price.
