Where do the results and data come from?
The survey results you see on our site are independent from our own opinions and the results are an average of the submitted surveys from our customers — drivers just like you!
How do I use the surveys?
It's simple. First, choose the category of tire in which you are interested. We will then show you the survey results broken down into an easy to use tire comparison chart for that category. We continually update the results, so check back often to see how some of the top tires fare over time. The higher the rating from 1-10 the better. Also keep in mind that survey data is only comparable within a specific given category.
For example, you're looking for the best all-season tires in snow in the High Performance All-Season category. Review that category's results for light snow and deep snow traction to find your answer.
How accurate are the results?
We have seen that in many cases our test results match closely what our customer feedback results are.
The reported miles can help you in analyzing the results. If the reported miles are low there is more possibility that the results are skewed by one person's experience. We do not enter our own results or change them to meet our expectations. Use our consumer survey results and review in addition to our test results which give a more direct comparison between tires.
Why does Tire Rack take the time to do this?
Our biggest incentive for giving accurate information is to get customers the correct tire for their needs. We benefit most in the long run from selling what will give a customer the best results.
