The Tire Reviews Score is the most comprehensive tire 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 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.

Questions and Answers for the Tyfoon All Season

Hello! I want to fit all season tires on my Renault Zoe. I have found a set of Tyfoon All Season 5 used for one season (195/55 R16 87H). They must be an updated version? I live in Denmark and only do short distance driving, often highway stretches as well. I would like to be able to drive in all weather conditions with care, unless the authorities advise against it. No performance driving, but would not compromise with safety, of you think I should steer clear. Looking forward to your response! Kind regards, Esben

Tyfoon tires are at the budget end of the market, and while budget all season tires can be good in one category, usually snow, they will likely perform poorly in the critical wet conditions you will spend most of your time in.

Latest Tyfoon All Season Reviews

Given 39% while driving a Hyundai Ioniq (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 20,000 average miles
They came new on a second hand Ioniq 28kWh, but swapped them for Continental AllSeasonContact 2 after about 32000km. The rears still had between 6 and 7 mm and the fronts still had between 5 and 6 mm. However that's about the only positive thing about them. They make a very noticable whining sound that increases in pitch with speed. It gets amplified when there is rain. The grip is okay as long as it's dry and warm, but the steering response is vague and driving straight is difficult. Once it gets cold, they lose grip quickly, below 4 degrees it's surprisingly easy to get the abs to work. Seems like a very hard compound of rubber. These tires don't feel safe in case you need to make an emergency stop. Since switching to the AllSeasonContact 2 the car is a joy to drive again, such a stark difference.

I would NOT recommend these tires if you get given the choice.

I purchased my Tyfoon All Season tire in 2010 after the very severe winter of 2009,by using them only during the winter months, I have at this point in time had 8 years of use from them.These tires are a very good investment, I would certainly recommend them.
