Conditionally recommended
The Premitra HP5 is a Taiwanese budget tyre that has been around for a while, and the test results paint a pretty clear picture. It can put up decent mileage and short dry braking distances, but the steering is slow to respond and grip levels in both wet and dry conditions are just moderate. To make things worse, rolling resistance is high and it's one of the louder options in its class. Hard to recommend when there are better options at a similar price.
