Dunlop ! Mmmmm No thanks. Dont last long enough. For past 30 years, driving 50000 miles per year, enables me to test and compare different tyres. Admittedly , this has been with different cars, Audi, Bmw, VW. I can honestly say, the best tyres have always been Michelin. I have remained with this brand for 15 years, Ok I have tried new Pirrelis , goodyear, just to compare new developments , and to confirm michelin are keeping ahead with the competition. I say Best tyres, in relation to comfort, but mostly wear and tear. I Dont drive hard, mostly motorways, usually carrying a load in my estate car, so the air pressures are 2.7 front 3.0 rear. Trust me, the correct air pressure has a huge influence on every aspect of tyre performance. I get about 45-50,000 miles on these tyres, currently Michelin primacy hp, These are excellent. I have tried budget brands, but replacing them every 10000 miles is just far too expensive. I never buy 4 tyres at once, I just wait till rears need replacing, put the fronts at the back and just buy new tyres for the front. Less money on tyres , more money for beer !
