Ranked #19 of 20
Finishing 19th among 20 competitors, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 was awarded a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' This assessment comes in light of the tire's commendable high mileage capability and its ability to achieve short braking distances on dry surfaces. However, these positive attributes were somewhat overshadowed by notable drawbacks, which included delayed steering response and a moderate level of grip on both wet and dry roads. Despite these mixed results, the tire did not specifically lead or lag in any particular disciplines as outlined in the evaluation.
