Our take

The Solus Majesty 9 TA91 is a solid option for drivers who prioritize dry grip and handling in a touring all-season tire. Its dry grip score of 8.5 and handling rating of 8.5 both exceed the category averages, making it well-suited for dry road conditions. However, the wet grip score of 5.5 is below the category average, which could be a drawback for those in wetter climates.

Comfort and noise are on par with the category benchmarks, providing the expected smooth and quiet ride of a touring tire. The 45,000-mile treadwear warranty, however, is notably lower than the category average, which means this tire may need replacement sooner than some competitors, potentially increasing long-term costs.

When compared to competitors like the Continental ProContact TX, the Solus Majesty 9 TA91 offers superior dry grip but lags in wet performance. For those who drive primarily in dry conditions and value handling, this tire is a good fit. However, if you frequently encounter wet roads, you might want to consider options with better wet grip ratings, such as the Continental ProContact TX.

Pros

  • Dry grip score of 8.5 surpasses the category average of 7.8, making it a strong choice for dry road conditions.
  • Comfort and noise scores both meet the category average of 8, ensuring a smooth and quiet ride typical of touring tires.
  • Handling rating of 8.5 is above average for the category, providing responsive steering for a touring tire.

Cons

  • With a wet grip score of 5.5, it may not be the best choice for drivers in regions with frequent rain.
  • Wet grip score of 5.5 falls below the category average of 6.9, which could be a concern in rainy climates.
  • Treadlife warranty of 45,000 miles is significantly lower than the category average of 64,578 miles, leading to potentially higher long-term costs.
  • The Continental ProContact TX offers a higher wet grip rating, which may be preferable for those prioritizing wet performance.
