Dunlop All Season 2

Premium Touring All Season Winter rated

A very winter-leaning premium all-season tire: impressively capable on snow and in cold, damp conditions, and one of the class leaders for longevity and efficiency. The trade-off is less convincing wet- and dry-road safety margins, particularly when braking.

2026 Auto Bild All Season Tire Test P11 of 15

The Dunlop All Season 2 finishes eleventh and is rated good. It is good on snow and very cheap to run, but its long dry braking, a pattern across recent tests, cost it heavily under the safety rule.

Dunlop All Season 2 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 7 reviews

Drivers' feedback on the Dunlop All Season 2 is mixed but generally favorable, with the highest-scoring reviews strongly praising confident all-season traction-especially in wet and colder conditions-and good real-world mileage. Several users also describe it as good value and secure in everyday driving. A smaller but recurring set of comments mentions noticeable noise/squeal and less satisfying handling/understeer on warmer, dry roads; one very low score reports poor sidewall durability but this is not widely echoed.

I've tried more than six different models of all-season tires, and this is undoubtedly the best I've ever had. Excellent grip in all conditions, from temperatures of -8°C to +34°C. Tested in light snow on the road (2-3 cm) with good results. The rubber is very adaptable to temperature changes and offers good mileage (58,000 km) with regular tire rotation.

Other leading brands should take note and learn a lesson in environmental responsibility: 58,000 km on roads in rather poor condition, like those we have in inland Spain, seems far more significant than a fuel saving of less than 0.1 L/100 km (the difference between one letter and the next on the fuel efficiency label), wouldn't you agree?

Let's see if they finally include the treadwear rating on the European label if they're truly as concerned about the environment as they claim...

If you're a frequent driver and looking for safety all year round, this is the tire for you.

Best regards, fellow drivers.

From my experience tire is very good in cold, wet and damp condition. On dry and warmer asphalt not so great at handling.
Wear is expetional, they wear very little.

Only driven a few hundred kilometers so far but the first impression is very good compared to the Kumho solus 4s ha32 that was on the car before. The tires tend to squeak when driving a little faster but have never lost grip so far. I have no complaints on wet roads either. I can't say anything about wear and snow performance yet. I would buy the tires again at this point.
