These tyres lasted 28K and would have gone another 8k in my opinion if not for me popping the rears on a kerb. They are very quite on the motorway and offer superb grip wet or dry, excellent in the wet and wear well too amazing tyre and highly recommended especially for the lexus as the V tread suits the Lexus handling and balance and wear.

I have just had these put on my IS200 and Im amazed at how quiet they are straight off. The tread pattern is awesome and offer loads of grip in the dry and wet, Since these tyres are new the ratings would be good but I must admit they are very smooth compared to my previous trashy Falkens! And I have thrown the car about on some country roads and they handle beautifully just to test them out! I cant comment on tread wear yet but friends have assured me that ill get at least 30K and more with my steady driving

Very smooth tyres as soon as they went on I noticed a difference and they were quite too. I found the dry grip good and the wet grip superb and the V tread suits the characteristics of the lexus IS200. They lasted a long time although I kept swapping them from back to front at 10k intervals found this to be the best way to get the most life out of them. i think overall Dunlop make good tyres and they look very nice too.

Stiffer sidewalls than the GSD3 means they feel better on the car. Still got the legendary dry and wet grip, just a bit more noisy than before.
Love them!!!

The tyre is well suited for both easy and hard demanding drivers. Wet weather traction is exemplary. The tyre is extremely quite and less prone to punctures due to the lateral tread configuration.
On the negative i have found the tyre has a tendency for rear 'heel and toe' wear. This is a scallop/wave that produces an undulating scar in the tread.
In the dry the tyre gives little indication of 'saturation' to the driver... unnerving even the experienced track day enthusiast.

False economy. Nearly failed an MOT after 11,000 miles. Compound too soft, feels more like a rubber band than a hefty tyre. Good roadholding in wet and dry for average driver and respectable in country lanes. Doesn't take kindly to urban warfare in the back doubles on the way to work. Can't handle the odd 'kerb' and potholes, strips lumps out of them. Very harsh response to driving into even the smallest pothole. Pucker factor 10 - you think you've ripped the front suspension off. One tyre was condemned for a split on the inside rim? Probably a pothole? Also had a puncture in another and the tyre shredded internally by the time the car came to a halt. Practically brand new and had to be replaced. I had never heard of them and only bought them because they were given such a glowing review by an online tyre sales site - blackcircles.com. They gave them all the credentials of a genuine article but it's like everything else in life, you get what you pay for. If this site had been around at the time I wouldn't have fallen prey to a salesman's hype. I wouldn't buy them again and couldn't, in all conscience, recommend them.

Absolute rubbish tyres wore way too quick and are way too soft, and I drive like a grandad too!
