Arroyo might not be a familiar brand for you, but they offer a lineup of passenger and light truck tires (as well as commercial truck and bus tires) that are packed with innovation, quality, and value. The Arroyo Grand Sport A/S is no exception; this is a tire that delivers all-season traction along with crisp cornering, short braking distances, and nimble steering response of an ultra-high-performance tire, all at a price point that’s lower than that of many premium brands.
The Grand Sport A/S is designed for performance and value, but don’t just take our word for it here – let’s go in for a closer look with this Arroyo Grand Sport A/S review:
Features and Benefits
Here are a few of the bullet points that make the Arroyo Grand Sport A/S a standout performer and a great value:
- 5-rib tread design boosts traction and resists hydroplaning with four wide circumferential grooves that channel water through and behind the tire’s contact patch
- Innovative anti-eccentric-wear ribs toward the shoulders are designed to fight uneven wear, with uniform contact pressure that puts more rubber in contact with the road
- Advanced tread formulation is engineered for long wear and tenacious grip
- Tread pitch variation is computer-tuned to cancel certain frequencies and resonances for a quiet driving experience
- Lateral and angled grooves boost traction on wet or dry pavement and disrupt airflow across the tread for lower noise
- A dense network of sipes multiplies traction with hundreds of hair-thin slits that serve as biting edges in wet or wintry weather
- Backed by a 40,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life
- Solid center rib in tread enhances steering response as well as straight-line stability on the highway
Pros and Cons
So, is this Arroyo tire the right choice for your ride and budget? Before you decide, let’s consider the tire’s pros and cons.
PROS:
- Handling properties are great
- Ride quality is compliant and refined
- Dependable traction on wet or dry pavement
CONS:
- The tire should not be used in moderate to severe winter weather conditions
- Some drivers report excessive noise on some pavement surfaces
SimpleTire’s view on Arroyo Grand Sport A/S tires
Arroyo classifies the Grand Sport A/S tire as a UHP all-season tire, and we feel that’s a pretty fair assessment. The Grand Sport A/S delivers confident performance in rainy or light wintry conditions, with handling, cornering, steering response, and braking that are more in line with what you might expect from a summer tire or UHP tire. That’s a real plus when you bear in mind that most UHP and summer tires use a tread compound that’s softer and stickier for good mechanical grip on the pavement, but which will also stiffen up and lose traction on colder days. Most tire manufacturers advise against using UHP or summer tires if temperatures are below 40-45 degrees F. Not so with the Arroyo Grand Sport A/S, a tire that’s a good pick for year-round performance thanks to its advanced silica-rich tread compound.
Cornering is confident right up to the vehicle’s limits, braking distances are short and steering feedback is great. Straight-line stability on the highway is as secure as if you’re driving an armored car, but it’s never sluggish – steering response to driver commands is sharp without being touchy or overly sensitive. The 40,000 mile warranty might sound a little short but remember that most UHP tires don’t offer treadwear mileage coverage at all. Whether you like to push the envelope a little and explore what your vehicle can do or if you just need good value in an all-season tire that offers great handling, it’s our opinion that the Grand Sport A/S from Arroyo is a great value in an all-season tire for sedans, minivans, coupes, and crossovers. Our SimpleScore rankings for the Grand Sport A/S are pretty respectable for such an affordable tire: 8.6 for longevity, 8.4 for handling, 8.2 for traction, and a composite score of 8.1 overall.

These tires are performing very well so far. Very little road noise and have been performing very well this far. Couldn't beat the price.

I researched a lot of tires and went with these because the warranty was excellent and the price was right. They ride nice and quiet and they handle the road very well.

Going from an extremely loud brand to these tires has been AMAZING. The tires ended up coming in two shipments (one day apart) but got here so fast nonetheless. (USPS said it happens sometimes.) However, this company and brand of tire will forever be a staple in my car shopping experience.

I save over 500.00 by brand comparison for the same features and quality for four (4) tires by using SimpleTires. The tires were delivered and installed as expected and I have recommended this service to several people by "word of mouth..." Thank you for keeping it simple for your customers. kdmorris

Simple Tire......great! Their shipping is through FedEx. FedEx is a nightmare. Was told 3 day delivery. Got 1 tire after 9 days. And after many many phone calls to FedEx other 3 showed 4 days later. So the poor review is mostly at FedEx. But Simple Tire is good to go.
