Tires DUNLOP or Uniroyal
I have 177000 miles on mine, I just went with the value tire. Uniroyal Tiger paws. great so far.
Falken, Toyo, Uniroyal etc are all good midrange. Don't skimp.
I’ve got Dunlop Winter Sport 5 195/55 R16 87H and they’re great. Consumption, noise and grip all well balanced.
I have dunlop mutants on my husaberg supermoto. I love them but the sides tear up pretty quickly under hard use. They're nice and sticky though!
I just wanted to share my opinion of the Dunlop Mutants after about 3000km of fixed use (highway touring, mountain twists, commuting, and fire/gravel/cottage roads in wet/dry/cold conditions. The tires are brilliant and my new favourite road tire.
I have been running the 14" tiger paws for over 5 years on my Mk3 2.0 Jetta and have loved them.
You will never get the q4 hot enough and will be more prone to low side, the exact thing you are trying to avoid.
I'm on fucking Uniroyal tiger paws (needed tires, these were in stock) I've used lube with more grip
Dang, I got the craptastic Dunlops on my '21 R4PSE, but we're only at 21k miles. Sad to see somebody got 45k miles on a set. Dang, I hate to replace them prematurely, so that means I have to endure another 2 years of squeaky skittish tires.
Looking at the Dunlops, they are rated poorly in pretty much every review I saw. They only have a treadwear rating of 360 which is pretty low for an all season crossover tire which explains why they're cooked at 20k miles. Most reviews I see are people complaining about them wearing out at 20-30k miles and being terrible in wet/snow.
