Atlas Force UHP Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 6 reviews

Value is the clearest positive for the Atlas Force UHP, with three favorable mentions among six reviews from five owners. Five reviews are positive and one neutral, averaging 81.3%, while two comments praise low road noise. Two owners describe a softer, more flexible sidewall feel when cornering, although one calls it mild. The owner who returned with another review remained positive about value and feedback, but both accounts were early impressions. Four reviews are initial, so the picture mainly describes the tire when new. The only end-of-life account reports limited life and sidewall failures, which is a concern from one owner rather than an established durability pattern.

These have been a phenomenal all tire for the price. Its not great at anything but its good at everything. I've had these on my car for a year. I drive like the very spiritedly and haven't felt the need to want to upgrade to a more premium tire.

Staggered fitment, only replaced the rear tires on my Lexus IS350, in New Zealand, great value tire, they were only $200NZD each
Not the longest life, one of the tires failed at 6600km non-repairable sidewall failure, replaced with same model
The other tire lived longer at 26255kms before going flat and having sidewall damage, at which point I replaced both (one now with 19150km on it, and the flat one)
They replaced some Japanese Bridgestones that were on it when I bought the car (the car was a Japanese import)... The Atlas Force UHP had a "Squishier" feel (more sidewall flex I suspect) in cornering -- that's the most I could tell.
With Laufenn's S FIT AS-01... review upcoming when those pop.

I searched for tires with the same speed rating, traction and temperature rating as the highest rated performance all season tires (all big name brand tires). I’ve had success for years finding high quality less expensive tires using this method, and often it’s a new brand seeking market penetration with price. These Atlas UHP TIRES are competitive in wet, dry, and hard use performance driving, and wear appears to be better than competitive, but maybe too soon to tell as I only have 6,000 miles on them so far. I have staggered width wheels and larger 295/30 19’s on the rear with 255/35 19’s on the front.
