Dunlop Tires 255/70/22.5

Anyone use these? Regarding quality, ride and wear.

Thanks,
Terry
  • Mine takes 295/75 22.5 and Dunlop is all we use... I make my living from cross country trucks and Dunlop has served us well...Used them for 10 years on trucks and since they hold up well there I run them on the coach.. My opinion it is the best tire for the money be it on a KW or a Foretravel.. Some will argue where I wont.... but I will keep buying them.

    Do a search on Hankook's.....you won't find anything negative.


    Don, I tried to buy Hankooks, Tyres International in Reno sells them. Almost 2 weeks ago I ordered the tires I was told they had to order them, Yesterday (Tuesday) I went back to the company and asked where my tires are, after a lot of puzzled looks, I was told it would take an additional 2 weeks to get them.
    I started shopping again, only certain stores can sell the commercial Hankook tires, so I'm stuck.
    The Hankooks are about $2200. for 5, the Dunlops are $1800.


    Found another dealer, He had them in stock, Will be going with Hankooks.

  • Hello. I was told my a friend to put Michelins on and get rid of Goodyear. He said my motorhome would drive completely different in a good way. He was right. :)

  • I had Dunlop all around on my DutchStar for seven years before I traded it in. I was always very happy with them. The set of six bought back in about 2007 were about $1,000 less than Michelin at the time.

  • Keep in mind I am an older cautious driver and I keep my speed down so they are more that adequate for me. Ive got about 8000 on the Dunlops and so far I would buy more.

    Yes, I have two on the front. Bought them on the interstate after a front blowout. Seem to be holding up ok. I am satisfied with the purchase. Think they are made by Good Year in the US. The Dunlop name has been around a long time.

    I have all 70s on my MH and since it originally come with 75s my speedometer reads about 2 percent off. But I usually use the VMSpc for speed which is correctable to the right speed.


    Thank you for your perspective, I need 5 tires, Found a pretty good deal (I think) $1820.00 Mounted and balanced out the door.
