Worst Tires. I drove only 26000 KM and my all Tires had repaired for more than 10 times. Additionally, i found one bubble on my rear Tire. I immediately changed all the tires. I won't recommend the purchase of Dunlop T1

Tires had done less than 2000kms when purchased car with them. Have spun out when driving slowly in town had abs kicks in in the wet with only light application of brakes. Taking off from stand still is slow with the wheels spinning with minimal throttle

Worst tires ever. Going up a moderate hill in the wet at constant 55kph and started slowing down. Dropped down a gear and wondered what was happening. Tires didn't have enough traction in wet to go up the hill at a constant speed. My daughter had an accident with them. Virtually zero braking ability going down mild hill in wet (brakes had been checked 3 days before). In the dry, on hot seal tarmac, had to slip clutch to avoid tire squeal/loss of traction. Vehicle was a 2.0liter Mazda 626 manual. Absolute death trap tires. After vehicle repaired, tires removed and replaced with Pirelli P7 Cinturato which are absolutely brilliant in comparison and showed none of the problems of the Dunlops. NEVER EVER BUY THESE TYRES

Dunlop Touring T1 developed bubbles on the side walls very early, as compared to Roadstone Radial 100.
