Worst ResultPerformance Analysis
Across four summer tire tests, the Tomket Sport 3 Series 3 shows a clear pattern of low-cost/low-resistance tuning that delivers strong environmental/comfort metrics, but with major compromises in wet-safety performance. Overall results are consistently below average (average overall position 30.3), including last place in a UHP comparative and near-bottom finishes in large group tests.
Its standout positives are efficiency-related measures (rolling resistance/fuel consumption) and occasional comfort/value highlights (very low noise in one test, low purchase price), but repeated poor wet braking, wet handling and aquaplaning scores indicate a consistent weakness in wet grip and stability-particularly concerning given the large time/distance gaps to the best performers.
