Tires Hankook or DUNLOP

Best bang for the buck, Hankook W300 for me.

i purchased dunlop wintersport m3 about 3 years ago and i look forward to the snow in RI and i travel to ski areas regularly with no real problems.

I've had the Dunlop M3's on 4 differnt cars including 2 RWD I really like those , they are also very quiet and fairly responsive in the dry too.

I never had any trouble with Dunlop M3's

Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D Have been wonderful so far (about 1 month). I needed good overall tires since the autobahn is cleaned up nicely very quickly and only the smaller roads have snow/ice on them.

I've got a set of Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D on the STI this year. So far I've been impressed.

I have Hankook Ice Bear W300's on the Mazdaspeed 3 and I like them a lot. I actually first used them on the Miata. Not the most extreme winter tire but NJ has very mild winters and they behave a lot like an all season in the dry which is perfect for me.

those look decent I have hancook snow tires myself but a different model. They are loud, ride quality sucks, I can spin the tires without trying (not a good thing) and I can't turn hard with them but they are great in the snow which is all that matters

I ran them on my R32, lasted about 20k miles. I was not impressed with them. Not sticky enough of a tire to have so short a tread life, not cheap enough either. I expected a hard tire that would last me awhile, and I got a hard tire that wore out at the same rate as a Toyo R-compound tire. Will not be buying Direzzas again. For the same price range I'd stick with Kuhmo's or Falken Ziex.

I am not happy with the quality of the Dunlop tires and I feel they should replace all the tires with a better reinforced sidewall in order to avoid the problem from resurfacing.
