SPORT ALL SEASON

I drove a set of these tires for 3 years in Eastern Europe with moderate weather, mild winters without snow, and hot, dry summers. I used them for about 3 years during which I put 75k km on them, mainly used outside the city on the daily commute of 150 km, at moderate speeds. I rotated them at 15k km between the front and rear axles. Now they have reached the first wear witness, the 3 mm. Theoretically and legally they can still be used but I will replace them. I can say that they are good to very good tires, I am on my first set of all season tires and I am delighted with their performance in any weather. On dry and wet roads, the tires behave very well, they offer a greater sense of safety and for me the longer braking distance in case of emergency braking was not a problem because I have a preventive driving style. The braking system of the Audi A6 is very good and strong. The tires are quiet when running and the degree of comfort when running is premium. In cold weather the tires have the same safety feed back, they are manoeuvrable. There was no need for emergency brake. I didn't use them in the snow because there was no snow. Conclusion: Safe, comfortable tyres, premium product from Dunlop. I will definitely continue with Dunlop. I highly recommend it to drivers who want a premium tire but who know how to drive cars and don't brake at the last minute. Ideal for areas where winter is more like late autumn.

After 70.000 Km with these tires, the time has come for them to be replaced. Mostly driven on motorways. Very good tires, very steady performance, without any unpleasant surprises until the end of their life. For sure they have become much harder, but this is natural. The grip on dry is very good. The wet performance also very good. On ice they performed better than expected, although I use all season tires for the first time.

I needed to replace my Michelin Cross Climate because they wear horribly cupped and sounded like a siren.
I was looking for conventional straight treads and there is not much choice in them.
I found these Dunlop tires and these were also available in 94V which means the side walls are stiffer.
The winter wheels have 205/55R16 dimensions which is a bit of a balloon and a trade off in handling, but for winter I do not mind.
After fitment I was thrilled about the noise comfort, very smooth and "soft" tire. After 4000 miles the tires still feel OK-ish, but when the temperatures drop below 10 degrees Celcius the tyres get more noisy, and above 130kph they definitely are present. Light vibrations are present now, had to re-balance the wheels (10 grams each) which helped a bit.
Pro:
The tires are reliable and give predictable feedback to the driver, good in wet, good in snow.
tread wear, nice and even.
Cons:
Aquaplaning when going over a metal expansion joint on the highway when driving through a long bend. Car is perfectly aligned.
Soft side walls, it is not made for sporty driving in cold conditions (not made for it ofcourse).
Humming noise at higher speed.

excellent feeling And handling in the dry. Wet as well very good alongside with braking. Dry braking is a big no with long distance and wheel tendency to lock up (No abs car) even at low speeds.
As the car is in central Italy with very mild climate, the chances to try the tires in the show are very thin but, living in the countryside and having tried them in the mud I can say that the grip is not the best.
In conclusion an excellent all season if you want the summer tire handling in dry and wet but consider a significantly longer stopping distance.

First 1000Km with this tyre at mixed conditions and the impressions are perfect. Breaking and wet drive are excellent. Snow drive is also very positive.
