Ranked #8 of 9
Securing the 8th position out of 9 contenders, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 didn't make a significant mark in its performance evaluation. Despite being the most economically priced tire in its group, it failed to establish any commendable strengths. However, its lack of glaring weaknesses did offer some consolation. A notable letdown was its performance in terms of rolling resistance, which was seen as below par. On wet surfaces, it performed commendably well against its competitors in aquaplaning scenarios, particularly in lateral aquaplaning, where it showed excellent water displacement, earning the highest marks in that category. However, its grip faltered slightly in sharp turns under high-speed conditions. In dry conditions, while the tire balanced out its high rolling resistance with reasonably good handling and stability near the limit, its loud rolling noise was a point of criticism. Overall, the tire was recognized for its decent performance but fell short of ascending to the top ranks, primarily due to its inadequate rolling resistance and noise levels.
