In terms of dry and wet grip or braking, how does it perform compared to other brands?

i tried, generally it does not differ much from the other tyres at the same or slightly higher range. But the difference I could tell is the thread it had on the tyre, so thick! rclxms.gif

Thanks for sharing. Yes, the grooves are very thick. Should be good in dispersing water during rain.

Bridgestone RE003? Between the 2 brands, which is your preference?

this interesting tyre actually caught my eyes.

cheap and pretty good.
good at wet and dry, hearsay.
I didn't try it hence don't use my words as a guide.

for a size of 17', it cost less than rm250..

most tyres that are noisy, are good at grip.
like RE003?

thick, because of high treadwear. make your money last.

Both comparable for me. There are some feedbacks on the noise from Viking. Nearing 10k km, so far still ok.
Viking being new to the market, I think most people would prefer Dunlop due to brand familiarity.
