Tires DUNLOP or Cooper
Continental 860+ I think has been the best reviewed winter tire in EU for several years now. I drive Dunlop, because the Continentals were out of stock.
only have about 5k miles on my Coopers but they sound and feel awesome.
I have Cooper Discos on my 2500 and have no complaints about them. My area is very dry and I don't take the diesel off road so I can't speak to that aspect but they handle regular driving quite well and do not protest with the hauling and towing I do.
I have the Cooper Disco3, had a regular version on the jeep and now the XLT on my truck.
Great in snow, studdable is neat but never felt the need to.
Poor in mud once it’s worn down but so is any tire. I get good fuel mileage with them and overall very happy with durability and road manners.
I now have ZIIIs on my Miata and have been enjoying them. I’m not super picky and they were cheap but the grip is astonishing. Road noise is probably average.
I just had a set of Direzza ZIIIs on my AP2, and switched them out about three weeks ago. I’d put the overall grip from the ZIII slightly higher than as the Falken Azenis RT615 K+ I ran before I switched to the Dunlop. They talk more than the Falkens at the limit, meaning if you like to kick the tail out, they scream like a banshee. They’re a responsive tire, with a stiff sidewall and chunky tread blocks. The tire has a very solid feeling, and doesn’t feel like it deforms a whole lot as you load it up.
I have 17" Cooper Zeon RS3-G1 all seasons on my 2017 hatch and have been liking them. About 15k km on them so far and no complaints. Got a great deal on them at Canadian Tire!
guys at the tire shop i go to said that you get good value for money with dunlop tires. they’re high quality but cost less than bridgestone or michelin. i’ve not noticed much of a difference so far as compared to michelin.
About 2 years ago I had 4 Dunlop Conquest Touring tires installed on my 2015 Passat. About 5 months ago, less than 15,000 miles we noticed a groaning sound coming from the passenger side rear. I had all 4 tires rotated and now the noise is coming from the passenger side front. This was more annoying than having the groaning noise come from the rear so we had them rotated back again. The \"dealer\" said it was due to cupping and that's common with Dunlop.
I use Dunlop Direzza DZ102. Good for normal street driving. Tend to slide when doing aggressive driving into corners or turns. I do not like them too much.
