satisfactory
Ranked #16 of 21
The Maxxis Premitra HP5 secured the 16th position out of 21 competitors, earning a final rating of 'Satisfactory'. In the extensive evaluation, this tyre was particularly lauded for its excellent safety margins in aquaplaning conditions and its short braking distances on wet surfaces, all offered at a low price point. However, it was not without its drawbacks; notable concerns included understeering during dry handling, a significantly limited mileage, and a higher rolling resistance. A standout feature of the tyre was its exceptional performance in both cross and longitudinal aquaplaning disciplines, where it was deemed the best among its rivals.
