fark, i just recently bought a set of duraplus '1' tires.

i use 165/60r13 of original duraplus, noisy at first few thousand KMs, but after a while not much noisy. but still cant beat hankook or dunlop j5 in term of noise, but both of those wears faster la.

you ask again after 3-4 years la
duraplus 1 is noisier and less comfortable compared to other brands like dunlop j5 or hankook kinergy ex, viking or even silverstone tires. cant comment on duraplus 2 lol.

but will i use again? yes, if it can last long2 as what their claim, wet performance is acceptable for me. stay away from falken, the least noise out of economy tires, but kinda bad grip when it come to braking and bad wet performance.

but michelin only qoute 20% longer than its competitor, so how come can get double?

i visit michelin MY website, no mentioned of such 60k miles warranty.
if if they did able to do 100,000km with softer rubber, shouldn't they brag about it like what goodyear did with their duraplus series?
