The D606 is a beast and will last a very long time with both dirt and pavement use.
Pros: last a long time
Cons: pain to install

I ran Ns2R on my R32 for a couple years and have no complaints.
Pros: no complaints
Went with Toyo Proxes R888Rs, 205/45/16s in the front and 225/45/16s in the rear. Quick run around the block and they felt great. They also look pretty good
Pros: felt great, look good
Dunlop American elite are good, I had them on my 500+ lb honda Cx. I currently have Michelin commander 2s on my honda 650.
Pros: are good
Vehicle:
Honda
i love my Michelin Defender 2, they aren't the sportiest of tires, but darn are they great GT tires (decent economy) and have decent tread for dirt roads. Only down side is that tread does have the tendency to grab on to the smaller rocks that jettison off later down the road once you hit black top.
Pros: great GT tires, decent economy
Cons: grabs smaller rocks
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
I have them. I used to have a Michelin PS4S, which lasted about 24k miles before my front tires basically have no treads left (1.5/32 I think). Difference is stark, in terms of noise in highway. NS-25 is just so much quieter and I realized I can hear my podcasts without raising the volume to where it used to be. In terms or ride quality, I can definitely feel that it is ever so slightly more firmer than the PS4S, but I didn't actually check what tire pressure my tire shop put them on as, so it's subjective I suppose. road feel and grip, albeit I did not push them too much, isn't that bad.
Pros: quieter ride, good grip
Cons: slightly more firmer
Mileage: 24000 km
72k miles riding year round and like the Dunlop, after trying different manufacturers. I now use the American made Dunlop Elite, but also liked the original one because they wouldn't break loose in winter.
Pros: wouldn't break loose
Mileage: 115872 km
Michelin pilot road 6; you won't regret it.
Pros: you won't regret it
I’ve driven a wide variety of winter tires. Bridgestone, GoodYear, Firestone, Cooper, Michelin, Continental, and one or two others. Some were quieter, some were better on ice, some were better in deep snow. None were terrible. If you go with major brand names, that are not much over 5 years old, you should be ok.
Pros: quieter, better on ice
Cons: none were terrible
I had some Kendas on a K75 a decade or so ago and they were garbage.
Cons: garbage
