Tires Tesla or DUNLOP

So I came to event day on my normal Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tyres. In practice, I found that on the R-spec I could do an 89 second lap, but consistently run at 92 seconds (I could do consecutive 90 second laps, but brakes would become the weak link after about 4 consecutive laps). On the street tyres I could do a 93 second lap, but due to brakes again, nominated at 95 second lap.

July of 2020 built LR Y with 34k miles and its been great. Definitely by far the best car I've owned. My 1st year I only drove it 7k miles, but then I bought a house 35 miles from my work and ended up putting on 27k miles in the last year.

My 1 and only complaint is it chews through tires, I replaced the factory set at around 20k miles, and 5k of those miles were on snow tires and they were rotated religiously. I've adjusted my driving habits a little (I have a heavy right foot, lol) and I think I might get 30k miles out of my current set.

My 21 MYLR delivered last September, and I’ve put on 23k mi since. Have had to replace windshield, tires, and got the trailer hitch installed. The road noise bothered me at first, but when I replaced the tires (larger all weather) that has significantly improved.

I got myself the Grantrek AT5s. For me they have a good compromise between traction offroad and road noise on tarmac. I also fitted a full spare with one of those AT5s on it. Fits perfectly where the 3/4 sits.

Just about worn through my D605 on the front.

Wonderful on road. Not too loud and gives you plenty of grip in the twisties. Have found some cupping after it’s worn down but that’s pretty normal for any knob tire.

Off road handles hard pack dirt and gravel easily. Rocks and roots are okay as well. The only area is had little traction was soft sand and mud. I haven’t found a good front tire for mud yet so that’s expected.

Overall for the price and rating as a 50/50 tire, it handles very well.

For summer, I am still using the stock Dunlop Enasaves. They are quiet and efficient generally, but make a lot of noise in the corners.

I got about 22,000 miles out of them. I never had any problems with grip, but they did wear out fast.

I was able to break loose/slide the stock tires during my test drive in January.

I made the mistake of driving my 2018 on summer tires too late into the fall. There was no controlling it - the tires had no traction.

Yes and they sucked. I was lucky to have a very mild winter but I remember one day when it was probably around 25 with a fresh dusting of snow and they were ice skates.
