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.

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.

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.
