Ford Police-interceptor-sedan Tires

While it’s recommended that active-duty police cars use tires specifically designed for law enforcement, our team at SimpleTire has gone through and rounded up some of the best Ford Police Interceptor Sedan tires, including all-season, all-season UHP, all-weather, and winter tires. We then ranked them in Best/Great/Good order and used our SimpleScore system to assign a numerical value for each in the categories of longevity, handling, and traction. Ready? Let’s go in for a closer look:

1. Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3 - Best UHP All-Season tire

Let’s kick this list off with the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3, an all-season tire that’s designed for enthusiastic performance along with reliable year-round all-season traction. The P Zero All Season Plus 3 is designed from the ground up with an updated polymer-enhanced tread formulation for durability and long wear. Stability and wear properties are enhanced with a twin steel belt package, a polyester casing, and polyamide reinforcement plies. Pirelli backs the P Zero All Season Plus 3 with a 50,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty. In light of that, we give the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3 a very solid SimpleScore of 8.9 for longevity. Year-round grip is one of the chief advantages of this tire, with an asymmetric tread pattern that features a minimal void area and puts more rubber in contact with the road. Superb grip and performance in wet or wintry conditions come from a variety of sipes, including full-depth 3D sipes in select tread blocks, enough to register a very strong SimpleScore of 9.9 for traction. Enhanced steering response, braking and cornering are also excellent thanks to larger pitch-sequenced tread blocks and reinforced shoulders, for a SimpleScore of 9.9 for handling.

2. Toyo Celsius II - Best All-Weather tire

All-weather tires might not be a familiar category to some drivers. All-weather tires can be thought of as an all-season tire that’s designed to more or less compromise between all-season and dedicated winter tires with features that are designed specifically for winter performance. The Toyo Celsius II is a great example of a premium all-weather tire. It delivers the refined ride, crisp handling, and low noise of a Grand Touring tire along with a distinct advantage in performance and grip in wet or wintry conditions. In light of that, it shouldn’t be surprising that the Celsius II is Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified for severe winter conditions, with a silica-rich tread formulation that’s optimized for long wear as well as improved traction on wet or snowy roads. The Celsius II features an asymmetric tread that incorporates large, solid tread blocks and a dense pattern of multi-wave sipes, multiplying grip with hundreds of extra hair-thin edges to dig into snow and slush, for a SimpleScore of 8.5 for traction. Cornering, braking, steering response, and high-speed stability, are all superb, thanks to that tread pattern and a high-stiffness polyester casing with two steel belts, a jointless nylon cap ply, and a stiff shoulder that resists tread squirm and deformation during hard maneuvers. That all means a SimpleScore of 8.6 for handling. With a 60,000 mile warranty, we give the Toyo Celsius II a SimpleScore of 9.6 for longevity.

3. Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter - Best Winter tire

Now it’s time for our pick for the best winter tire for a Ford Police Interceptor Sedan, the Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter. The Eagle Enforcer Winter is a police-grade winter tire (obviously making it a great fit) and has been shown to deliver top performance in police tests. We gave a very strong SimpleScore of 9.8 for traction for the Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter. It’s designed with a proven winter tread compound and directional V-Tred tread pattern that’s loaded with angled grooves and sipes to cut through snow, slush, and standing water for dependable grip and braking properties. Handling is predictable and precise, with a SimpleScore of 9.8, with Goodyear’s ActiveResponse Technology for improved cornering and control. Steering response and driver feedback get high marks, with a custom tread formulation that’s distributed in zones along the tread for wet or dry pavement performance. With a SimpleScore of 7.5, the Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter does lose some points on longevity, but it’s important to remember this is a dedicated winter tire, not an all-season tire, and is for cold-weather use only. Like all winter tires, the tread formulation of the Eagle Enforcer Winter is softer to stay flexible in subfreezing weather but will wear quickly in warmer conditions. Winter tires shouldn’t be used if temperatures are above 40-45 degrees F.

While these are the best Ford Police Interceptor Sedan tires on the market, there are plenty of other options to consider.

4. Hankook Ventus V2 Concept2 (H457) - Great UHP All-Season tire

Next up on the list is our pick for a great UHP all-season tire, the Hankook Ventus V2 Concept2 (H457). We feel this Hankook tire is a great fit for the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan, offering UHP levels of performance along with great wear properties and year-round traction. The Ventus V2 Concept2 (H457) registers a very strong SimpleScore of 8.8 when it comes to traction, with its innovative all-season tread that’s designed with circumferential grooves, sweeping V-shaped grooves, sipes, and 3D tread blocks with wide shoulder block notches,. The Ventus V2 Concept2 (H457) gets a respectable SimpleScore of 8.1 for longevity – the Hankook Ventus V2 Concept2 (H457) is backed by a 45,000 mile warranty. The grippy silica-rich rubber compound, high-hardness bead filler, and reinforced internal structure all work to enhance cornering ability, steering response, and road manners for a handling score of 8.7.

5. Sumitomo HTR AS P03 - Good All-Season tire

We’re going to wrap this list up with the Sumitomo HTR AS P03, an all-season tire that’s a great choice for powerful, high-horsepower sedans, coupes, and crossovers. Sumitomo engineers designed the HTR AS P03 with Miura-Ori multi-siping system, circumferential grooves, and innovative “fin”-shaped grooves, all working together as a system to boost grip enough for an M+S rating for mud/snow traction (as well as a SimpleScore of 8.5 from us). The tread design and shoulder resist the inertia and stresses of hard cornering, aided by a sticky silica-enhanced tread compound, reinforced high-tension bead apex, and cross-designed grooves and sipes (SimpleScore of 9.0 for handling). Durability is another real plus with the HTR AS P03], thanks to tough internal construction and that rubber formulation, with Sumitomo offering an up to a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty (depending on tire size), and earning a longevity SimpleScore of 8.7.
