Just got a set of Dunlop Trailmax Missions mounted on my 800 XCa and very impressed with them so far. They grip surprisingly well on the road and handle gravel and service roads/hard pack dirt roads with ease.
I have D606 on both ends at the moment. Perfectly fine on dry pavement once you trust them.
Tusk Dsport is same tread design as Dunlop 606 but 1/2 the cost. Love mine.
That's the setup I've run the most and it does just fine on pavement. I get tons of miles from the d606.
My last rear was a d606 and now I’m running the tusk d-sport. I know it’s probably blasphemy on here but I like it better than the d606
My dunlops had about 8-9k miles on them and were down to 3/32" front, and 4/32" rear.
They are super grippy so they wear faster.
I never had any slipping in the rain.
A few weeks ago, on my brand new 2023 base model I swapped out my stock Dunlops for the Continental DWS06 Plus A/S tires and have been miserable since. Yes the Continentals did their job on a recent ski trip where the roads were a mix of ice, wet and snow, but on dry roads I feel like the car handling has diminished significantly (sidewall flex) and just don’t enjoy driving it in a spirited way now. The Dunlops are a bit of a harsher ride and nosier but I’ll take that anyway over these Continentals in conditions without ice or snow.
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.
I have a pair of Dunlop Wintermaxx’s and they seemed like great tires, very gripping with dry roads. However, when it rains or is wet, they seem to absolutely suck. I start skidding/sliding even on simple turns at low speeds, even in a round a bout.
Needless to say the stock Dunlop were showing wire after 12000 miles
