Performance

Evolution Tour is an all-season tire that is designed to give you confidence and put you in charge of your car in most driving conditions.

Its counterpart, the Evolution H/T, is a SEMA best tire winner with all positive reviews from consumers on this 3 Evolution line.

The Evolution Tour provides an attractive limited warranty on all sizes, it is available in 48 popular sizes and they are competitively priced.

Handling

You can be sure of a smooth and comfortable performance from this tire and you will not have to worry about excess road noise as the noise from the tire is minimal.

Steering response is great, and you also get precise acceleration and braking, confident cornering with overall responsive handling.

Dry Performance

You can go for the H-rated tires if you drive aggressively and require a grippier compound.

What you will get is a great deal of performance on a dry and wet surface with this tire.

You do not have to worry about road noise on a dry surface and you get predictable handling too with great steering response.

Wet Performance

One of the qualities we find more fascinating is the siping and tread grooves.

You will find them to be wide, almost wider than non-truck tires and by this design, you will not have to worry about their performance on water or slush.

As it has proven to be efficient on the wet surface, as it keeps good contact with the road surface, you will not have to worry about hydroplaning.

Snow Performance

As we all know, all-season tires are not the best on snow, especially on heavy snow, but with this tire, you can still expect good performance on mild snow.

Slippage when starting from a dead stop on the snow-covered surface can occur but it is minimal.

Overall, you get less slippage with this tire on snow compared to most all-season tires.

In sudden turn or stop, you will not feel noticeable slippage or sliding on snow which is unusual for all-season tires.

Ultimately, you will find this tire impressive on light snow for an all-season tire but if you drive unplowed roads frequently or drive on extreme winter surfaces, then you can check out exceptional winter/snow tires.
