Tires Pirelli or DUNLOP

He got rid of the summers and replaced with some high-quality performance all-seasons (Pirelli PZero a/s3). The way the winter climate is going on the East coast, the logic for doing that (instead of proper summers and winters) is becoming a lot more compelling. So, nothing suspicious about that.

I'm using the Pirelli Cinturato Velo TLR, in 32mm, because it was top rated for puncture resistance in a tubeless tire. It's not as fast as the Conti GP 5000 S TR, and it may even cost more, but if you're looking for puncture resistance above all else, you should consider them.

Go for Pirelli if you want more durability, Longevity and easier mounting if tubeless.

I ride on Pirellli road 25c tires for years. I had finally replaced them last year. They ride nice and had good traction. I don't think the Conti is worth the money. They seem wear quicker.

I’ve been happy with the Pirelli’s easy to mount and good puncture protection while feeling fast.

I run the pirellis p zero 4s and love them comfortable and roll really well.

My Thruxton R had Diablo Rossi Corsa stock tires. The belts were showing by 3500 miles, (they are a tire designed for track use) If you’re looking for high mileage tires, the ones I feel really meet that criteria are the Michelin Road series tires. Amazing in the wet / cold and the compound is very good for upright riding for daily driving.

Mine came with dunlops and all four had to be replaced after about 16k due to dry rot.

Hated the pirellis. They barely last 2 seasons on my is300

Michelins always last 4 seasons

The dunlop d214 is not great. Look at the dunlop roadsmart 3 or 4.
