Dunlop Direzza DZ102 Reviews - Page 2

Given 70% while driving a Volkswagen Polo 6R GTI 1.4TSI (180HP) (215/40 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 15,500 spirited miles
Grip in the dry was good while grip in the wet was average. Comfort was much better than the Goodyear Directional 5 tires I had fitted on. Unfortunately, the wear rate is reason enough for me not to buy this tire again. At 25,000KM, I had not expected the tires to be at the end of its life.

Just done 10k on Direzza DZ102 on our daily. Plenty of life left, can do $40k+. Quiet tire. 04 Mazda 6 sedan with rx8 wheels

Quite impressed with them. Usually $180-200 Australian for an 18 inch tire we got ours for $144 each. Great tire, can easily compete with $250 tires

Dry 8/10. I also own Z1 Star semis 10/10

wet n/a

value for money 10/10 for $144. 9/10 for $200.

Would buy again if they had correct sizes. Sizes are a bit limited....

Well, actually these tires surprised me a bit. I didn't expect them to perform that good ;) Despite their low price they turned out to be a very strong competitors. I replaced worn out ContiPremiumContacts with Dunlop and I wasn't disappointed. I can't say about the limits as I had never reached them. But with DZ102 you're confident in dry or wet conditions. The grip is fantastic even in hard rain. But be aware of noticable loss of grip on dusted or gravel roads. The noise was very noticable first 1k o 2k miles then it's kinda gone ;)
And I can't tell much about tread wear due to low mileage so far.
Summarizing all said I'd strongly recommend DZ102 to be considered as every day summer tire :)
