I've run Dunlop Wintersport 3D's for going on 4 years. They're great in snow aswell as just on cold pavement.
I've been running Dunlop Direzza Z-1 StarSpecs on the track and on the street with no issues, still on OEM 18" wheels. NYC potholes have not been kind to me either, but no bubbles.
pretty sure i had some Dunlops on my GTI a decade ago or more, and would buy them again, too.
Had a bunch o different Dunlops on three different cars and they're far better economy tires than the sumitomos or coopers I've used.
Star Specs - 90% of the Bridgestone at 80% of the price.
The Direzza's are pretty sticky and take a lot before they break traction. I'm very happy with them performance-wise.
The original Dunlops (can't remember exact tire now) on the RX8 were useless below 35 degrees. I couldn't even take off gingerly without the traction control and ESC lights going crazy. But in the warm they were quite good.
We previously had the Signatures on our Avant and I did not care for them. They were far less sporty than the A/S3s that are on one of our other cars now and also wore poorly and became pretty noisy as they wore. They had sort of a "blocky" feeling to me.
I'll never use Dunlop again, although I had the SP Sports as OEM on the GLI not the Signature. They ran like garbage, had a horrible lifespan, and provided no benefit above the Generals I have now. Yet they are much pricier.
I hate the stock tires on my 14 sGT. Very poor road feel. The dry grip is horrendous and the road nose is almost unacceptable. Especially right at 55 miles an hour. I can literally feel the buzzing they produce at that speed. 100% would not buy these tires.
