Excellent in dry grip is very good I would say the same for wet handling...But on the wear I can say after approximately 25.000 klms some cracks on the center line of the tire were a bit of inconvenient..Generally I drive approximately 10.000 klms per year in all road conditions and I have them.now for 33.000 klms... Regarding the label for fuel consumption I would personally say no big deal...In general I am happy with them compared to Continental premium contact 2 that my car came with...Would by them again.

Have bought two 195/55 H15 for the front of my Skoda and felt an immediate improvement in noise levels and ride quality as soon as I drove out of the the tire fitter's garage! Was so impressed a couple of miles down the road that I seriously considered going back to buy two more for the rears. Only my wife stopped me by reminding me how I'd been complaining earlier in the day about all the expenses that were "piling up". Paid £140.98 fitted for the pair at National Tires, which was a good price, as many others were quoting £80 - 90 ea for this tire and other suitable brands. Puttingg price to one side though, I decided on the Dunlop's as I was impressed by the good ratings given in each class for economy, wet weather performance and noise levels. On the basis of my limited experience so far (re the excellent noise levels and ride quality) I hope the high test ratings for economy and braking performance will also be born out as I clock up further miles. Am looking forward to fitting a further two to the rear as soon as I've worn the originals further, and The Good Lady gives permission!

Good tires but do not last long. Have been using for the last four years. Been changing my front ones twice in a year. They do wear a lot. Do around 12k miles a year. Bit expensive for my test. Otherwise they're quiet, handles my car well and really grips in corners.

I have these tires fitted to my 2.0 l Mazda 6 but will fit something different next time. They have done about 15k miles but the tread on both the inside and outside edges has virtually disappeared. I check the tire pressures monthly and have had the tracking and suspension checked. The grip is generally OK in most conditions. Road noise seems to have increased with wear.

Had these tires fitted approx. 12 months ago and have done about 8500 miles on the rear of my Skoda Fabia, I paid approx. £62/£63 for them and at that price where very good value, although they seem to have gone up in price now, good in both dry and wet weather, very little road noise and seem to be lasting on the rear well. I would buy these tires again IF I was happy with the price and could get them for under £70.

Fitted these to the front of my A6 2.0 tdi brilliant grip in the wet and dry . I have been very pleased with these tires but as they get near the wear marks they have got very noisy , sound like a worn wheel bearing. Have only managed to get just over 14000 miles out of them.

Alarming, complete lack of grip in an inch or two of snow and slush, will never touch these tires again, or any other Dunlop product. Not looking forward to my next journey !

Excellent tires in all aspects. I have tested them in all kind of weather except in heavy rain and all kind of roads. Braking is excellent, no emotions whatsoever. Very quiet. What I do not like: the rim protection is far from perfect.

Very impressed with this tire at first. Exceptional grip, performance, fuel economy, comfort, the works!! I drove from Swansea to Margate and reached 72 MPG with these at AVG speed of 69mph. Exceptional.

BUT
I reached about 7K miles and realised the outer edges were scuffing BADLY. Had the camber/caster checked by VW. Apparently fixed. Reached 12K miles and now they have started showing threads out of the scuff marks. Needed to be replaced. FRONT TYRES ONLY! Back tires are still 6cm of tread throughout.

So. My advice for someone getting these for a VW. Rotate them around 5K so that you do not blow them like I did.

Not cheap but worth every penny!

Had a set of these on the front of our Ford SMAX TDCI 2ltr. I drive very, very conservatively and managed to get 18,000 miles out of them. Always felt confident when driving with no issues at all, just felt right. I could have used cheaper tires but as usual I was swayed by my perception of brand quality over unknowns and I'm quite happy with my decision. The car was never pushed to any limits and was driven in various weather conditions both motorway and roads without ever making me doubt their grip. Overall a good buy.

Shocking tire for the price. Barely done 20,000 and now they're classed illegal!!

Maybe that's the rub, they drive well and have a grip of velcro in the dry. But that does not mean they should just wear away so quickly. I drive motorway at constant speed on cruise.

The wear on the outer side of the tire - due to its sidewall softness - is unbelievable.

No I will not buy this tire again.
