Hi Guys,

Wondering whether anyone have tried the new Dunlop SP Sports J5 tyres that was launched?

Just changed to it, and darn it is good!

Was a user of the Dunlop D-01 previously, almost went for Yokohama Advan Decible, but this tyres is not that far off!!

Anyone think the same?

How much it costs and what size?

Mine is a 195/60 R15, got it for RM 190 a piece (free alignment and installation with purchase of 2 tyres and above).
Quite a fair price actually (they having a promo).

The new CityCars chain inside a mall. Nice concept (I am not an agent, just a user)

my previous experience with dunlop sp sport j3 is not good.



btw, just found out dunlop is under continental group now

Yes, i saw it was made by Continental, that is why i have confidence in it. If not, then i surely won't touch.

Interesting thing is, it has Wet performance and dry performance indicator, that is something new that i have seen first in this model.

Now Got promotion at Citicars.

if they are under conti then my confidence in it nose dives

thankfully, the ZII * spec should still be independently done by Dunlop Japan (sumitomo/goodyear)

anyone know where to buy dunlop ZII?

extreme performance tire with extreme pricing, ad08r level basically.
sure you need it? (i believe got people commented it on tire discussion thread)

Try Lim Tayar
2013 or 2014 they have advertisement for ZII* and i remember price being very reasonable too

Anyone else changing to this tyres?
At least can give people some review to read about.
(you'll be the first review in Malaysia )

I'm gonna try this tyre see how good it is. If not change it back to Hankook.

I am personally using it now, worth every penny!

Better Grip than my Formula D-01
Less noisy
Good grip indication for both dry and wet.
Gives good confidence while driving both weather.
Good value for money
Good looking pattern
Also low rolling resistance.

Overall: Good value for affordable tyre.

Tyre used before: Falken Sincera, GT Radial Champiro, Good Year Assurance, Dunlop Formula D-01, Continental CC1, Continental CC-5, Silverstone Synergy M5.

All mostly comfort Tyres.

Cheers.

thanks for the info guys...
will try to check later...
happy monday and happy working!!!

Anyone know How much is the treadwear label?

on my 195/60R15. Threadwear is 340.

Went there too Citicars, I checked them out on fb: citicarsmalaysia and booked on www.citicars.com.my

many ppl is asking about treadwear , traction and temperature on the side wall... actually this is their own manufacturer lab test postioning difference brand have their own calculation .... which means that if this A brand treadwear is 340 and that B brand is 240 most of those tyre shop ppl will say oh 340 is more tahan thean 240 lo.... answer is definetely NO ... just a ex: vw gti oem tyre potenza make in poland tread wear just about 140 only why millage can go more than 50k ??? and xm2 michelin some size tread wear is 420 also around 50k...

In terms of comfort and silence, how does the J5 fare? Mind to give some feedback in this area? Planning to change to this for my vios. Thanks!

Just changed to it recently. So far so good. I thought it was worth a try as its made in Continental factory and the prices are much better compared to Continental
