I have had no issues. They have performed very well.
I am not an aggressive driver and the tires have exceeded my expectations.

What is a Touring tire?
Touring tires are everyday tires that put value, comfort and wear first. They give up some of the wet and dry performance of the premium options in exchange for a lower price.
Summer tires use compounds that work best in warm conditions, giving the strongest wet and dry grip of any season category when temperatures are mild or hot. Their performance falls away in the cold, which is where winter and all season tires take over.
The SUV and 4x4 Summer Touring Tires owners rate highest
Rated purely by the people who drive on them, the top tire in the category is the Kormoran Suv Summer - 91% from 19 owner reviews. 31 tires have enough reviews to qualify; this is the same ranking behind the category position shown on each tire's own page.

A tire needs at least 3 owner reviews to appear here. Owner ratings reward different things to tests - comfort, wear and value show up over thousands of miles, not on a test track.
What drivers say about SUV and 4x4 Summer Touring Tires
The most recent owner reviews from this category, in their own words.
Bad ply seperations, bad traction in wet and snow, and had 2 blow out completely on road. They had half tread life left, and the correct pressure in tires pre blow out. Absolute garbage! My advice spend 30% more and get a good U.S.A. made tire.
They were taken off in the first one hundred km as when you turn the steering wheel at 110kmhr and the car goes straight ahead there is a problem. I got a full refund and replaced them. I was driving a Mazda Tribute.
Baught Joy Road HT summer tire 5 month ago size 225 60 R18 ...Do not go for price, it's cheap but this tire has poor quality get u trouble on road so do not go for price go for quality pay little extra more but do not take risk for any JOY ROAD tire.
Terrible tires that vibrated had them rebalanced 4 times. Conclusion by tire fitters was they were out of round. Garage that supplied them brand new with the car didn’t want to know and Accelera wanted proof of purchase from the garage who wouldn’t provide it. Ended up swapping them for Michelins which were like heaven transformed the car. Would never touch Accelerra with a barge pole -poor tire and poor customer service.
Very good allround tire, with good attributes in dry, wet, offroad, mud, snow and good feedback. A little noisy, but good longevity also.
Spin too easily in the wet, or occasionally in the damp or dry. Disappointed with wear as I usually get at least 30,000 out of tires on UK roads (50,000 once on Michelins)
They were fine in dry conditions, but sucked in snow; have replaced with BF Goodrich and are very pleased with them
Real value for money! Super grip in most circumstances on tarmac. Mix of rural roads and motorway driving. Not so good on gravel (Yes I drive on farm tracks). Wear seems very good, even compared with Michelin or Goodyear!
SUV and 4x4 Summer Touring Tires EU label data
75 of the 157 tires in this category carry EU label data. These are the category's label headliners, using each tire's best available size figures.
A Best wet grip
8 tires reach EU wet grip class A. The highest scoring:
A Lowest rolling resistance
The most fuel efficient choice: 4 tires reach rolling resistance class A. The highest scoring:
67dB Quietest tires
The quietest tires in this category are labelled from 67 dB external noise:
- Sava Intensa SUV 2 7.9
- Nexen Roadian HT 6.6
- Accelera Iota ST68 6.6
Label values come from the EU EPREL database and vary by size - the figures here are each tire's best declared size. Wet grip and rolling resistance run from class A (best) to E; noise is the measured drive-by figure. A good label is a floor, not a verdict: the tests and rankings above tell you far more.
New SUV and 4x4 Summer Touring Tires
The newest arrival in the category is the Jinyu S1 Suv Sport. 3 tires have joined in the last two years:
| Tire | On the market since | TR Score |

| Jinyu S1 Suv Sport | 2025 | not yet scored |
| Blackhawk Hiscend h Hv61 | 2025 | not yet scored |
| Tigar Summer 3 SUV | 2025 | not yet scored |
New tires take time to earn a TR Score - tests have to be run and owner reviews have to arrive. A missing score is a data gap, not a verdict.

About the TR Score
The Tire Reviews Score rates each tire out of 10 using independent test results and the full body of owner reviews, weighted by how much evidence backs them.
Who does the testing
Every test published as a Tire Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tires independently since 2007.
