I bought and fitted these tyres to a 2013 Jaguar XKR Coupe in November 2019. Now 10,000 miles and 15 months later all tyres are showing hair line cracks running along the valleys between the treads. I admit car because of COVID not used so much in last 12 months. But at £800 cost I feel these tyres should be able to cope with diverse use and mileages. As I write I am not aware whether this is an MOT failure or not. Performance of tyre In wet and dry conditions generally good and with out issues. I only discovered these cracking problems yesterday and have not yet taken it up with Dunlop but will be. There was nothing I could do to prevent this and through the ownership period I have maintained the the recommended pressures. VERY POOR DUNLOP!!! Roger

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 given 100% (285-30-20-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
Must admit I am very impressed. There is not a single aspect in which I can fault these tyres. Excellent dry grip and progressive at the limit, settled in the wet with good aquaplaning resistance which is important on 285 section tyres. Quiet on poor roads and consideration how much I like to turn the traction control off they are only showing minimal wear. It is difficult to comprehend how much better the Michelin PS4s could be to warrant the astronomical price difference. Car is a '13 Jaguar XKR 500bhp
