Tires DUNLOP or WEST LAKE
Great tire with awesome grip; however I prefer the q4 because the 5s wear out faster.
The Q5/Q5S is a good fire and has great grip with relatively low maintenance in the sense that you don't need to run warmers. What does suck is the wear, which is pretty aggressive ????
I run the Dunlop Direzza on my 2007 JCW - with no complaints.
For City just get Toyo Japan made. It'll cost u lest than RM600 per tyre. I've used Dunlop before and it's good. Threadwear high but the tyre not too hard. Good grip in dry but average in wet. Toyo Japan made excellent in wet n dry.
The winter sw606 are actually really good winter tires. Somebody mentioned Florida so maybe that's where you are, but I'm in canada and I'm on my third set of westlake winter tires lol they're boss for snow.
Westlake is an okay brand. Walmart sells them and their installation costs are usually pretty low.
20k miles, wore completely. However gotta say that they perform great when new/mid life.
Grippier enough to keep the car balanced on hard situations.
Cons: Dunlop SportmaxxGt tires are run flat, so can be noisy or tend to be harsh at ride.
My Dunlops are near end of life. I only work two days a week so I’ve made it work but driving in the other day had a quarter inch of snow on the ground…..sketchy asfff.
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.
