Radar Dimax R8 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 37 reviews

Wet grip and noise are the main reservations about the Radar Dimax R8, with 11 and nine complaints among 37 reviews, against three and four favorable comments. Overall opinion is divided: 15 reviews are positive, nine neutral and 13 negative, averaging 52.5%. Smaller groups praise value, dry grip and dry handling, with six favorable mentions each. Tread life attracts seven positive comments against two negative, including later-use accounts of substantial tread remaining. A minority also describe instability or sidewall damage, but some damage accounts are duplicated and do not establish a cause. The more favorable dry-road and wear experiences therefore coexist with repeated concerns in rain and about refinement.

I currently have a set of Dimax R8 215/50ZR17 on my Mazda3. I've had these tires for over 6 months and still show no signs of wear. They handle great and grip adequetly. I am currently in Iowa and will soon be able to test these bad boys against some of the snowy conditions. I hope they don't let me down or leave me at the bottom of a hill. So far, I am impressed.
