we've been using Dunlop for our vios.
Dude the stock dunlop's can't even handle muddy roads. I live down a really long one and turning out of my driveway onto the road always made the front tires spin and the diff lock up weird.
Changed over to as3+'s and it's never been better.
Stock dunlops...terrible in snow.
Winter tires...beast mode!
It's a night and day difference.
knew I should have replaced them before we left - New Goodyear Endurance all the way around
The Dunlop Direzza ZIII is worth looking into. A close friend has half a season of autocross and 4 time trial events (So about 17 twenty to 30 minute long sessions) on his ZIII in a 2013 NC and they still have life left. For autocross they're basically a less grippy Re-71R, but they come into their own on track.
Dunlop direzza zIII's good wear 9/10 traction never get greasy, great stiff feel and break away.
If it's warm I'd recommend considering the Goodyear SuperCar 3. It is faster than the RS4 or RT615k+, better wearing than the RE71/Rival/Yok.
They were pretty good but after I replaced them with the Falken wildpeak AT3/W and those were better performing and a far better bang for the buck.
I'm on ZII's on my "street wheels" and while they're fine for around town, I've never liked them from a performance perspective. Compared to the purpose built 200TW cheater tires (e.g. RE71R, RT660, RS4) the ZII's give up a LOT of grip and probably seconds per lap at a racetrack.
They did ok on the track for a summer tire (240tw) but I think next season I'm going with something else. For the life of me I could not corner in these
