Tires OEM Audi or DUNLOP
Dunlop Roadsmart 3 12k miles.
MT21 front and D606 rear, both great wear on slab
The D606 rear had a nice price/off-road grip/road handling/distance. I’d get about 4500km before the rear needed changing which was not to bad for the price. The only negative I have with the D606 is it’s not great on wet bitchumen. Very easy to lock the rear and go sideways with the slightest dab of rear break.
Used up two sets on my Xr650l and love them. A bit noisy on the pavement but great off-road
D606 are really good for the street. I had them on my drz400 and the street cornering grip was amazing. I could hang with any other bike on the tight roads. They're not going to like high speed over 65mph. No complaints on the wear.
They're good on 40+ weather. And they're loud. Freaking louder than the Blizzaks and those are snow tires with huge knobs. They're stock tires so use em as much as you can then buy better tires.
Personally, I thought they were ok, during summer they handled great. Never felt uncomfortable in the rain or snow either. But once they finally wore out (and I mean…nothing was left on them), I swapped them for a pair of Nitto Neo Gen, their better and I feel like they grip a ton
Almost slid into a car last year on the oem dunlops, can confirm they are dog shit wrapped in cat shit
I was able to break loose/slide the stock tires during my test drive in January.
I made the mistake of driving my 2018 on summer tires too late into the fall. There was no controlling it - the tires had no traction.
