Only ever had Pirelli and Dunlop.

With Pirelli's we were slipping and sliding all over the place, especially when going round roundabouts.

Much prefer our Dunlop's. Smoother ride and better grip. All IMHO.

Can't fault the Dunlop, one set lasted around 36k miles!
Not much warning when it was about to let go on the edge ;) tho.. probably cos they're quite hard tho...

:D

Funky tread too :D

Edit: Ooh yeah, they were 17"s..

Only ever had the Dunlops on 16s.

Fronts lasted about 12K and rears were still ok at 24 when I traded the One in.
On the Cooper, it looks roughly much the same as the One, maybe get a couple of tousand more out the fronts if i'm lucky.

Did have a 16" Dunlop repaired, something ISTR that a Goodyear couldnt - although this might have changed now.

Dunlops seem to be the clear lead in this. but the Pirelli are a better overall according to Mytyre
