The 999 rear does skid out much easier then the Dunlop American elite, however I like to skid so that is a pro for me. I ran thru 2 Dunlop elites quite quickly. For the record I did like the Dunlop AE, just didn’t like replacing it every season
The Elites are a much better tire and I’m going to miss them when they’re gone.
I run Dunlop American Elites. Mind you, I do so because it’s a good tire - not so much a ‘Made in America’ reason, albeit a plus.
Dunlop SP Sport J6, my go to for budget tyres. The wet and dry performance is good although it can get a bit noisy over time.
Dunlop Roadsmart 4 is a very good tire.
Good grip and good mileage.
20k is what I got out of mine. They aren't bald, but it's time. They aren't bad tires, but I don't feel any advantage over a quality all season like Michelins.
Coming up on 40k on the original factory set. They're about down to the bars, this will be my last summer on them.
Having worked at a Porsche dealership I’ve seen Dunlops wear out ridiculously fast. I’d be looking at a comparable Michelin or Conti to replace it with.
I have a pair of Dunlop Wintermaxx’s and they seemed like great tires, very gripping with dry roads. However, when it rains or is wet, they seem to absolutely suck. I start skidding/sliding even on simple turns at low speeds, even in a round a bout.
Needless to say the stock Dunlop were showing wire after 12000 miles
