My Dunlops lasted 40k, I’d say most would be around 30-40.
I had the Firehawk Indy 500 from Firestone on, and they we're great. Lot's of grip going around corners and still felt very secure during heavy rain. I paid around 900 for a set of four on my 18 inch wheels.
Firestone fire hawks. But the ride is perfect and so is the handling with those tires, for me at least. I have continentals currently, and I much prefer the Firehawks.
Ich fahre seit Ewigkeiten Dunlop Wintersport. Egal auf welchem Auto und in welcher Dimension, ich habe damit nur gute Erfahrungen gemacht. Egal ob in Mitteldeutschland, in den Alpen oder bei einem meiner vielen Ausflüge nach Skandinavien und entsprechend richtigen Winter. Zudem hatten wir auch über Jahre Dunlop als Standardreifen auf unseren Testfahrzeugen, entsprechend viele Kilometer habe ich mit diesen schon unter sehr winterlichen Bedingungen zurückgelegt.
Indie Firehawk 500s. I love them. Nice summer tire.
Looks fine other than it’s wet and has other people’s rubber on it. You’re gonna find out that the Indy 500 is not a track tire. So when you push really really hard, it’s gonna get really greasy and loose very quickly.
The tires I currently have are Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s, which were on the car when I bought it. For my use case I generally like them, with one exception: wet weather performance. Even though moderate NorCal doesn't see too many rainy days, I've felt myself losing traction/hydroplaning on quite a few occasions. If it weren't for this issue, I could easily see myself just replacing them with another set of Firehawks and calling it a day
Do NOT buy Firestone Tigerpaws. Under the blue white wall protection is a 1" "whitewall" that the carbon in the rubber penetrates right thru. They are tobacco brown in just a few days. Garbage product.
It’s definitely the crap tires. Same on my ‘25 Rogue. Bought with my 3 miles of test drive on 1/3/25… now at 18k hwy miles the tread wear indicators are showing. I think they will need replaced at 20k.
In contrast - 2 of them were slashed at 1k miles. I replaced those two with Goodyear MaxLife. 17k miles later, the Dunlops are almost gone, the Goodyears show little to no wear whatsoever.
Dunlop Grandtek PT21’s are TOTAL CRAP.
Just got these on my wife's cx5 and yeah they didn't feel much better than the blizzaks we just removed. Then she texted over the weekend to say they're the loudest tires she's ever had and the road noise is terrible.
