I am currently using dunlop d05 and it’s time to change. I would like to know which other tyre has similar design as this?

1. It helps prevent kerb rash on the rims due to the tyre walls are slightly “More outside”.

2. The lining of the tyre, marked in green depicted below, I think it makes the rims look bigger? As opposed to the goodyear assurance triplemax 2 design. Especially since my rims are black, so the tyre lining would be more obvious.

That's called rim protector. Since D05 has, then the newer D06 probably would have it too. I remember PS3 and Goodyear F1D5 have them too.

Thanks all for the reply, will take note. Have found that even the same model of tyre can look different. Sample below. So i guess the tyre size and maybe rim size affects also? hmm.gif

Probably different manufacturing country or different year of release.

That one can still go another 20-30k km, still very thick.

But the sides already worn. Still can tahan so much longer?
For now i feel it’s still ok in the dry, not when it’s wet.
