    I liked the dunlops at 1st.
    Thy wear fast and become flat in the center too fast. I like a round tire.
    If nobody here can make it. I will git one that's made else where.

    Lot of your car companies has started putting michliens on the upper made trucks and all,
    I have some Michliens that have been on my 1ton diesel van since 03,

    + 1. Great tires. Hands down Home Run. I buy the Dunlop American Elites. Same construction as the OEM S.E.s IMHO

    Well, maybe it's the road surface itself:confused:I don't ride overly aggressive in the rain,'cause crashin' sucks,but I don't like to candy azz it either...The roads I ride mostly to work does hold water,but the E3's handled much better than the Michelins at the same mileage...

    Hey I'm very happy with my Dunlop's that came on my 2012 and won't be switching to another brand either. I've also heard very good things about the E3's. Used to run the E2 Dunlop's and liked them to.

    Yeah...they must be a pretty good tire,I hear that a lot,unfortunately they don't have that tire for us guys with the 16" wheels...got a little road trip around New Brunswick and PEI coming up and I'll do it with the Michelins, I'll have my better half with me,so if the weather turns bad,I'll candy azz it for a bit then pull in somewhere,she's a trooper and wouldn't say anything ,but I know she doesn't like putting in a whole day in chitty weather...but she does like touring winery's:cool: lol
