I now run the Dunlop D604, and it’s perfect for me. I run gravel roads and farm trails that are mostly dirt and mud. Granted- they are an all-terrain tire, and will not do as well as the knobbies in deep mud, but they are more than efficient for gravel and hard pack/well traveled dirt roads, even if they’re wet and slick.
I just checked Tire Rack for the 17in size tires and they're in stock. There's also a Bridgestone version.
The Dunlop's that come with the bike were pretty good but the Pilot Road 6 I've got on them right now are just marvellous on grip and wear. I don't think I'll pick a different tyre from now on.
In winter I run a set of Blizzaks in 225/40/18 on the factory wheels. Car is excellent in snow
All 4 wheels are in perfect condition. No scratches, bends or dents. They were installed on my 2024 Golf R for 3k miles Tires are in perfect condition with only 3k miles. Bridgestone Potenza S005 235/35/19 8.5x19 rim size ET45 offset
For my winter set I'm using the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 (205/55/r16) and while not as good in the snow as the Conti WinterContact, they handle amazingly in wet conditions (we get quite a bit of rain) and are relatively silent and good on fuel.
They’re pretty good. Not the best but they perform awesome. They’re overpriced but they come with the car so whatever. Anyone that says they suck are full of themselves and probably can’t drive the car to its full extent anyway. I track my cars and have used many a set of tire, these have awesome traction, good in rain and look good.
I ran these tires once to save money. You can get a knee down but noticably less traction than something like an s22. Afterwords I switched to michelin power 5's, loved them.
The exact thing happened to me a few weeks back with those Bridgestones. I've never had a new tire like that malfunction.
Hey I had Bridgestone and they behaved noticeably worse in snow than Micheline cc2 or Goodyears I have now, much happier with them than Bridgestone cheers
