The 999 rear does skid out much easier then the Dunlop American elite, however I like to skid so that is a pro for me. I ran thru 2 Dunlop elites quite quickly. For the record I did like the Dunlop AE, just didn’t like replacing it every season
The Elites are a much better tire and I’m going to miss them when they’re gone.
I run Dunlop American Elites. Mind you, I do so because it’s a good tire - not so much a ‘Made in America’ reason, albeit a plus.
Dunlop SP Sport J6, my go to for budget tyres. The wet and dry performance is good although it can get a bit noisy over time.
Dunlop Roadsmart 4 is a very good tire.
Good grip and good mileage.
20k is what I got out of mine. They aren't bald, but it's time. They aren't bad tires, but I don't feel any advantage over a quality all season like Michelins.
Coming up on 40k on the original factory set. They're about down to the bars, this will be my last summer on them.
I live in north Georgia and last winter kept the Dunlops on. Once the temps were consistently in the low 30s it was like driving with Fisher Price wheels. I constantly had to go slow through turns and could feel slipping even at low speeds. It was not a fun time. I switched to Michelin Pilot Sport 4 all seasons this winter and the difference in feel in the cold is incredible. It’s been in the 20s this week and the tires aren’t slipping at all.
Absolute garbage in winter here in central new york. Need one say more. Summer tire in warm wet conditions are satisfactory. Cold dry conditions they have a slight slippery feel and if there's any cold wet conditions like below 50 they tend to move the car around.
Having worked at a Porsche dealership I’ve seen Dunlops wear out ridiculously fast. I’d be looking at a comparable Michelin or Conti to replace it with.
