Tires Firestone or DUNLOP
I replaced the garbage Bridgestone OEMs on my 2020 Jetta S manual with Firestone all weather at 29250 miles.I am totally pleased with them they are quiet and ride and handle nice and good in the rain.
A nice budget summer tire, if maybe a bit outdated. They were very well regarded on Tire Rack as a budget option for awhile. Unless you’re trying to run 10/10th on the street, they’ll be good. I did find them to run a bit narrower for the same section width than the Michelins I replaced.
They are good tires.
I put 90k on my original Dunlop tires, and will just be replacing them now. Great tires!
Eu am Forestone Multiseason 2 și sunt foarte mulțumit. Puse pe două mașini, vechime 4 ani, sunt super ok și acum. Singurele neajunsuri le-am simțit în următoarele situatii: - pe zăpadă proaspătă mergeau mai dificil, intra Esp-ul (senzație similară ca cele de iarna tocite), așa că aveam la mine mereu lanțuri, dar nu le-am folosit niciodată. Și asta am prins doar la Rânca și la Straja in rest nu prea mai avem zapada.- vara la 25+ de grade, le dau cu spray de protecție UV, și trebuie avut grija cu frânarea pe asfalt încins.
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 had the first set of Dunlops till about 12k miles when the dealership stole one of my wheels during a rotation and put someone's busted wheel and tire with 1/8th less tread on it on my car. After some threats of legal action I got a new wheel and 4 new Dunlops, which lasted roughly 20k miles, mostly commuting.
The Firestone destination le2 are straight garbage. Mine have 32k on them and they have zero grip in the snow, even in light powder snow. I might replace them before they are worn just because of how dangerous they are in wet and snowy conditions
I joined here and immediatley saw a dozens of posts about how SHIT the stock Dunlops are at 40F or less and massacres of spanking new WRXs.
My dad had a Ranger that came with the recalled infamous Firestone Wilderness AT's. When they did the recall, they put the shittiest summer street tires on as a replacement with absolutely no traction in the snow. That's the worst tire I've ever ran on a vehicle.
