UPDATE: 4-Year / 8,000 miles Follow-Up
I am currently running my final pair of Dunlop Sport BluResponse tyres on the rear axle, but I will be replacing them permanently before next season due to ongoing rubber degradation. While dry and wet grip remained acceptable over time, the severe tread block cracking developed far too early despite low mileage and optimal indoor winter storage. The compound simply hasn't held up chemically, proving that this model lacks the long-term durability needed for low-mileage drivers. I cannot recommend these tyres and will be switching to a different premium brand for my next set.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Dry grip good , wet grip good, had thease on my previous car 18s done 17000 miles loved them, 8000 miles on thease and rears are worn to 3.5 mil and fronts on about 6 and not been on long front wheel drive
Although the grip in wet and dry was good the noise was not,they sound and vibrat like a wheel bearing is going, I've changed back to Dunlop max RT2 which are a fantastic tyre
I love these tyres on my mk3 mondeo st tdci only got them on fronts at the moment. But trust them fully I do not understand the people that slag off these tyres at all. Either your pressures are wrong or sorry ! You cannot drive.
I fail to understand why these tyres have been stopped in manufacture

These fitted to front of mk3 mondeo st tdci. Wow what a tyre had before conti. Vredestein forever on the fronts feedback. Grip. Wet n dry superb lasting as well. But they have stopped the sessanta why???? But you can still buy. Online.
Hi, first I just want to point that I have this tires on my car for only 3 weeks so the 5th line - "wear" is somehow just an average between my scores nad not the real deal. For those interested if would be an extra field for "snow grip" it would be scored as 8 stars ! Yes, 8, for an allseason tyre.
3th line scored with only 6 stars could not be necessarily an issue for many people, the "floating" feeling of the car pleasing some of them :) but not me. There is absolutely no noise of this tires and the 4# is for real, you can actually feel as the car losing grip gradualy and slightly lowering the spped you're getting it back in big roundsabouts at 50kmh.

Had these fitted to my ford Mondeo ST tdci(not so stock)for over a year and have not had a problem with these tyres
I can stop as good in the wet as i can in the dry noise & comfort all good
Would definitely buy again
Also got them fitted to my sons ford fiesta

Generally good tyres, but I did have PS3's fitted when I bought the car and they were far better. I was recommended the Eagles for cost / wear ability, but hells bells, they are extremely NOISY.
And for this and only this I would not consider them again.

I brought a set of four of these tyres thinking they look good and have good performance figures c in wet and c on fuel performance, but and very very very big but these tyres are dangerous because side splits and looses air and even main tread pattern splits across . My tyres are under six months old and only done a max of 5000 miles. I am in the progress of trying to get my money back as they are so bad ! Please don't buy these tyres as these will cause a crash and nobody wants to hurt someone.
