CarCareTruth's Analysis

Last reviewed June 5, 2026

TL;DR Grand-touring all-season with UTQG Traction AA; one Consumer Reports test places dry and wet braking in the upper range for its class. M+S rated, not 3PMSF certified; provisionally capped.

What it is and how it performs

The CS5 Ultra Touring is a grand-touring all-season for sedans and crossovers, sold in a wide range of passenger sizes from 15- to 20-inch rims; this page covers the model, not one size. UTQG: Treadwear 620, Traction AA, Temperature A. One Consumer Reports test reports Good wet braking, Very Good dry braking, and Very Good hydroplaning resistance. No 3PMSF severe-snow certification; M+S rated for light snow. Tread-life and comfort scores are provisionally capped until a second independent source is confirmed.

Who should buy this, and who should skip it

Right fit for a daily-driven sedan or crossover owner wanting a Traction-AA grand-touring all-season. Skip for hard winters: M+S only, no 3PMSF; a 3PMSF-rated all-weather tire is the correct class.

Safety and environmental impact

Cured-rubber-and-steel construction; no chemical-exposure pathway in normal use. Prop 65 warning not flagged. All tires shed wear particles and 6PPD-quinone in road runoff; scrap tires are mostly burned or downcycled, driving the below-average environment score.
