Vauxhall 1.6 16v CD Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Dunlop Econodrive given 56% (225-45-17-)
Driving on for 20000 easy going miles
Tyre grip is fine, feedback is good, noise level, acceptable. What isn't acceptable is longevity. stones/imperfections in the the road surface leave small tears in the tyres. at 6mm, these tears become quite a tear. Enough to cause a puncture or to see the steel of the tyre.
Overall, a poor quality, expensive choice of tyre. There are better tyres out there. I would consider a budget tyre before purchasing another Dunlop and that's not a choice I usually make!

3 tyres replaced two pre 10k punctured, one at 19k holed to steel.

One now being replaced at 30k (1.7mm tread left) thankfully, as it has so many little tears in it.

Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 average miles
though not a directional tyre they have to be fitted the right way, the side that faces out is clearly marked, nice tyre plenty of grip wet or dry, not too noisy important on my car due to minimum isulation, good handling overall a very good tyre, good value

Driving on mostly country roads for 52000 average miles
Really suited my car and all 4 lasted 52,000miles. Had Pirellis put on to replace them and the car handled awfully. Next Bridgestone Potenza RE88's and handling like a dream again.
