Performance Analysis

Dunlop All Season 2 shows a clear endurance and efficiency bias with class-leading tread life, strong abrasion resistance, and above-average rolling resistance/fuel metrics. Snow performance is consistently good, occasionally top-tier, helping overall balance. However, dry braking is a recurring weakness and wet braking/aquaplaning are mid-pack, limiting headline results despite durability value. Noise levels also trend loud.
Overall, it excels for high-mileage, cost-conscious users in mixed climates, but drivers prioritizing short stopping distances-especially on dry roads-have better options.
