Atlas tyres, priced AED 250–700 in 2025, offer value in the UAE’s USD 2.4 billion tyre market, tackling 50°C heat, Sheikh Zayed Road’s 140 km/h speeds, rare 20 mm rain, and Al Qudra dune trips. Originating in Belgium in 1935, Atlas delivers ESMA-compliant tyres with 2-year or 64,000 km warranties. The Force UHP, an all-season ultra-high-performance tyre, suits Lexus ES350 sedans and Ford Explorer SUVs for budget-conscious UAE enthusiasts. This review evaluates atlas tyres’ Force UHP for cost, grip, durability, noise, comfort, and performance on highways, city roads, wet conditions, and light off-road, with driver insights.

Atlas tyres’ Force UHP costs AED 250–700 (e.g., 235/45R18 for ES350 at ~AED 350). “Buy 3, get 1 free” deals in 2025 Ramadan sales save ~AED 250–700. Compared to Michelin (~AED 600–1200), it’s a steal, per an ES350 driver: “AED 350 performs well.” Rotation every 5,000–7,000 km (AED 50–100) and annual alignment (AED 100–200) maintain its 64,000 km lifespan, though sidewall cracks worry some, per an ES350 driver: “Cracked after curb hit.”
On Sheikh Zayed Road, atlas tyres’ Force UHP scores 4/5 dry grip, ~36-meter braking on ES350, per a driver: “Corners well.” On Explorer, it offers ~37-meter braking, 3.5/5 grip. In 20 mm rain, it stops at ~38 meters, 3/5 wet grip on ES350, but slips on Explorer (2.5/5), per a driver: “Avoid puddles.” Its silica tread aids dry performance but struggles in wet, a budget trade-off.
In 50°C heat, Force UHP retains 6.7–6.9 mm tread after 10,000 km, projecting 64,000 km, per an ES350 driver: “No summer wear.” Its 400 treadwear suits UAE heat, though some note wear at 50,000 km on Explorer.
In Dubai’s city traffic, Force UHP scores 3.5/5 comfort, ~70 dB noise on ES350, per a driver: “Smooth for budget.” On highways, it delivers 4/5 grip on ES350 but vibrates on Explorer, per a driver: “Noisy above 120 km/h.”
In Al Qudra dunes, Force UHP scores 1.5/5 off-road grip, slipping on both vehicles, per an ES350 driver: “Stays on asphalt.”
Force UHP offers 3.5/5 comfort, ~70 dB noise on ES350, but 3/5 on Explorer, per a driver: “Firm and loud.” Its tread reduces hum, but premium tyres are quieter.
Force UHP lasts 64,000 km, retaining 6.7–6.9 mm tread after 10,000 km, per an ES350 driver: “Great longevity.” Sidewall issues arise, per an Explorer driver: “Cracked at 20,000 km.”
