CarCareTruth's Analysis

Last reviewed June 4, 2026

TL;DR UHP all-season with UTQG Traction AA; independent instrumented tests show 1st in dry braking and near the top in wet braking for its class. M+S rated, not 3PMSF certified.

What it is and how it performs

UHP all-season for performance sedans and sport-compacts. UTQG grades: 560 Treadwear, AA Traction, A Temperature. Two independent instrumented panels confirm near-class-leading wet and dry braking. Owner data across platforms is consistently positive. Real-world tread life comes in below the warranty claim per independent sources; performance drivers report faster wear. Page covers the model across its available sizes.

Who should buy this, and who should skip it

Right fit for a performance car owner wanting class-strong wet and dry braking year-round. Skip it if hard winters are a factor (M+S only, no 3PMSF) or tread longevity outweighs grip; a 3PMSF all-weather or grand-touring all-season suits those needs better.

Safety and environmental impact

Cured-rubber-and-steel construction; no chemical-exposure pathway in normal use. Prop 65 warning not flagged. As with all tires, wear particles and 6PPD-quinone enter road runoff and scrap tires are mostly burned or downcycled, placing the category at a below-average environment score.
