Methodology & Configuration
Scoring Process
  1. Collect Test Data: Gather results from professional tire 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.

These are stock tires of my Punto 90HP. Absolutely perfect tires. Believe me I rode the vehicle for about 64000 as of now and they are still holds good grip. Recently checked with Fiat showroom and also a local wheel alignment center, both of them told that they can run for another 5k km with out any problem. Just go for it.

Given 49% while driving a Volkswagen Virtus GT 1.5 110Kw DSG (205/50 R17) on for 19,000 miles
Tires came standard on 2025 VW Virtus GT. Apollo tires are appalling in the wet. Dry grip is adequate, moderate road noise and excellent wear. Had an Aquaplaning incident and vowed to never use apollo tires again. Swapping out to Michelin PS5 in 225/45r17

Please do not buy Apollo Tire i request you from my bottom of heart. after buying tire warranty service is very bad. He not receiving your calls & service engineer not telling actual points & not sharing any information. Apollo service is worst & very bad. he did not entertain you & not change your tire in warranty. Please buy another tire rather than apollo tire. I am using baleno car, only 8000KM tire is very bad condition.

(Kia Sonet, 2019) These tire are good for dry road, good handling for aggresive drive. Wet grip and comfort is so so. I just can not stand for the noise at 100+, especially on concrete road in Indonesia

One of the most underrated tires around , if you own a not very powerful under 140 go fwd car I don’t find any particular reason why I wouldn’t rebuy them , put them through the harshest roads and they never gave up .

I bought a set of Alnac 4G for the Audi Quattro since i need the good budget tires for my daily.on the Dry road,it's fairly good with this price range,No road noise @ 18,000kms at the moment.handling is good so far.On the wet road,Alnac 4G seems to be quite poor on the wet.Beware of Aquaplanning.it's easily slide out your car from the Lane.I would go for Aspire 4G next time.i'm good with increasing road noises as trade off for better road grip.

Given 61% while driving a Toyota Corolla T Sport E12 (195/55 R16 V) on mostly motorways for 10,000 average miles
I found these fitted on my car when I bought it. It handles acceptable on a dry, well-paved road surface. Straight line acceleration is commendable of tires in this performance and price range. Cornering on dry surfaces is also positive, but nothing to brag about.

These tires handle less than acceptable on wet surfaces and make me uncomfortable driving during moderate rain fall. They feel like they can slide any time during cornering on roundabouts. I have to decelerate firmly when approaching roundabouts, dry and (especially) wet.

Thread wear is great. They haven't worn much over time I had them installed. Not much more than I would find worth mentioning.

I wouldn't buy these again, because of the astonishing difference in performance compared to premium tires.

Had Apollo Alnac 4g in my i20 active. Tire life was about 40-45k kms with rough usage. Good handling and good dry grip specially off-road. Wet grip is also good but not as good as other top tires available in market. Will recommend these for those looking for good long durable tires.

Second, not the end, the other tire is now showing a same kind of mark at the outer side and I requested an online comlaint but they say it is because of allow wheels, I guess no Apollo tire should be able to bear the weight of the vehicle fitted with an alloy wheel, again there is no visit and they say it can not be replaced when I talk to them over the phone.
