Atturo AZ850 DR

The Atturo AZ850 DR is a compelling choice for drivers who prioritize dry grip and handling above all else. With perfect scores in both dry grip and handling, it promises exceptional performance in those areas, making it a strong candidate for track enthusiasts. However, its wet grip score of 5 falls well below the category average of 7.6, which could be a significant drawback for those who drive in wet conditions. In the ultra-high performance summer category, dry grip and handling are the top priorities, and the AZ850 DR excels in these areas. However, the lack of a treadwear warranty and UTQG ratings means potential buyers have less information about its longevity and overall traction performance compared to competitors. The comfort and noise scores are in line with the category averages, suggesting a typical ride quality for this segment. When compared to competitors like the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and Pirelli P Zero, the AZ850 DR's lack of a treadwear warranty and lower wet grip score may be a disadvantage for those looking for a more balanced performance tire. If wet performance and warranty are important, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S might be a better fit. However, for those focused solely on dry performance, the AZ850 DR's strengths are hard to ignore.
