Tires DUNLOP or SUMITOMO

I had two sets of Dunlop Sport on my C class in the past, my opinion are that they are good quality/price ratio but not top tier. I would personally consider getting Dunlop in the future.

I bought a set of Sportsmart mk3 last year on my mt09, and I have to say, It's the best choice I've made. The rear is now done after 15k kms, and I ride quite aggressive, power wheelies, fast twisties. I didn't expect it to last this long.

ive done some track days with my q5s at 22 cold and target temp hot for me is about 28-29psi rear. wears perfectly and zero tears

I love the Dunlop Sport Maxx Race 2 on my GT4. Amazing tires. Never thought I’d like a tire more than the Michelin Cup2.

I ran sumitomo htr z5 for a few years and liked them a lot (summer/perf). Currently on vredestein quattrac pro which is more of an all season sport touring, and meh, I like them and they're great at what they are but I miss having performance tires in the summer.

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.

Sumitomo HTR A/S P01. I tried them on two different vehicles and they were downright dangerous in the wet and snow, even when brand new.

My Dunlops are near end of life. I only work two days a week so I’ve made it work but driving in the other day had a quarter inch of snow on the ground…..sketchy asfff.

I live in north Georgia and last winter kept the Dunlops on. Once the temps were consistently in the low 30s it was like driving with Fisher Price wheels. I constantly had to go slow through turns and could feel slipping even at low speeds. It was not a fun time. I switched to Michelin Pilot Sport 4 all seasons this winter and the difference in feel in the cold is incredible. It’s been in the 20s this week and the tires aren’t slipping at all.
