The Radar Dimax 4 Season is an economy all-season touring tyre with some owner praise for value, snow traction and everyday wet and dry grip. There is little sustained-use feedback and no independent test record to establish its performance against rivals.
The Radar Dimax 4 Season appears a satisfactory budget all-season choice for some owners, with value and snow traction the most repeated praise. Dry and wet grip each receive two favourable comments in a group of eight reviews. These impressions suggest useful everyday versatility, but do not establish class-leading grip or braking performance. The small owner group is the only basis for assessment, with no independent tests to check its standing against rival all-season tyres.
There is no repeated specific complaint, yet that should not be taken as proof of an absence of compromises. One end-of-life owner reports 15,000 miles on the front with tread remaining and some grip loss as it wore, while another found a subsequent midrange replacement noticeably more capable. Neither account alone establishes a general pattern. Typical tread life and performance with wear remain uncertain, so its appeal is best understood as low-cost year-round use supported by a few favourable experiences, rather than a firmly established balance across conditions.

Are these tires quiet !!!
April 26, 2023
Unfortunately we've no experience with the noise levels of the Dimax 4Season. The EU tyre label in your size would be a good place to start, though that is only a measurement of external noise.
Owners generally describe the Radar Dimax 4 Season as a useful budget all-season option, with value and snow traction the most repeated praise. Dry and wet grip each receive two positive comments, but the group is small at eight reviews. One end-of-life owner reports 15,000 miles of front-tyre use with tread remaining and some loss of grip as it wore, an individual experience rather than a wear pattern. Another regards it as acceptable for the price but less capable than a subsequent midrange replacement. There is no repeated specific complaint, yet the limited sustained-use feedback leaves typical life and performance as it wears uncertain.

Have previously used a mix of UHP (michelin, goodyear, conti) , Mid range (vreds) and good reviewed budgets (Barum, Matador, Nexen etc). Picked the Radar Dimax 4s as wanted a budget all season. Have done 15000 progressive miles on them on the fronts over winter and summer and down to 3mm. I like to test tyres to their limits. Obviously not as good as the UHP Suummers but these have been a great budget all season option. If I drove normally I could probably have got 20-25k out of them easily. They were great down to about 4mm, then could feel them start to give a bit however when they went it was still controlled. Were great over winter aswell. Decent in dry, wet, and snow. Wouldn't hesitate buying again if wanting a budget.

I have 33k miles on Dimax E Touring on my 2006 Honda Accord Lx 2.4L 5 speed manual and still have 30 -40% tread left. Very surprised on how long they are lasting.

Bought these tyres as needed a all season tyre and was on a budget and for the money they were fine however I have now switched to a mid range tyre and they show the weakness of the radar tyres immediately if you want a (very) cheap all season option I would recommend these but if you can spend a little more then much better options exist

Still pinching myself, waiting for the day they'll not be amazing, went from premium, all be it worn, tyres that were noisy, vague twitchy steering, prone to sliding and drifting in corners and needed caution when roads hit damp.... Over to Radar all seasons as had winter tyres last night year and amazing in the snow, but wasn't expecting more than mediocre from these budgets.... Anything but, transformed a car I was dissapionted in and half ready to get rid of... Much quieter, more comfortable, feels secure in dry and wet with good feedback from steering, no more sliding wet or dry, I can feel where the tyres are and what they are doing, you can feel them holding onto the road, car is more fun and alive to drive and yet more secure in all conditions, yes even up a very sharp turn and incline in the snow without hesitation where I thought again all seasons may hesitate compared to winters. Never considered budgets before, never heard of radar before, thought all season budgets could be the worst of everything but reluctantly took these on recommendation of the garage from customer feedback, best decision I've ever made. Just bought a second car, it will be getting a set of these ASAP.
