I bought 4 Dunlop tires on Tire Rack some 3 yrs ago for my Passat B5.
Tires are a great value. Good handeling in Dry and some wet. Started to get noise from them at 20K. Should rotate every 5k and should last a little longer than the 30K I got.
These were on my R32 (as shown) and only saw 5-6k on the roads, and were stored winters. That said, tires are more of a gimme than anything else. With the off camber/toe wear from a substantially lowered R you lose a lot of inner tread.
I've run Dunlop Wintersport 3D's for going on 4 years. They're great in snow aswell as just on cold pavement.
I've been running Dunlop Direzza Z-1 StarSpecs on the track and on the street with no issues, still on OEM 18" wheels. NYC potholes have not been kind to me either, but no bubbles.
pretty sure i had some Dunlops on my GTI a decade ago or more, and would buy them again, too.
I had a set of Dunlop SP Sport tires on the Sentra a while back. They were good in the dry, decent in the wet and sucked ass in the cold.
I hate the stock tires on my 14 sGT. Very poor road feel. The dry grip is horrendous and the road nose is almost unacceptable. Especially right at 55 miles an hour. I can literally feel the buzzing they produce at that speed. 100% would not buy these tires.
The Dunlop's are worthless if you plan on doing any sort of off road driving. They were put on there to mainly optimize fuel consumption.
The OEM Dunlops on my 12 GLI suck in the wet and I'm sure they would be worse in the snow.
