Al Prescott,  AZ Dunlop Qualifier 180/55/17 Great tire, excellent in the rain. At $150 you can't beat it. Many of the other tires on the market cost much more for on par performance. Excellent grip, durability, and cost benefit. I’ve ran michellins, shinkos, metzler, bridgestone but I’m sold on the Qualifiers.

Peter Lexington,  KY Good tire I replaced my stock Dunlop on my '06 Yamaha R6S. Tire was really slick for the first 50 miles or so. I put 800 miles on the tire and got a nail right in the middle so i really didn't get a chance to test out the long term durability.

chad niederman haddonfield,  NJ Cheap sticky tire... I just recently bought the Qualifier and it is by the far best tire thus far...now I am not a wheelie or stunt guy at all, I am a straight away with heavy breaking as I rip thru a tight corner and it works out just the way I want....when I put the tire on it felt like my bike was brand new again...HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Andy Oertel Holliston,  MA sweet tire Only 400 miles on so far, no real rain riding yet, so I can’t judge wet traction/tread life. Awesome side grip in corners! Hooks up real nice too right off the line. Warms up at the start of your ride nicely. Awesome price!

Mike Festus,  MO Great! I have only put about 500 miles on these tires so far and they seem to be doing great! I rode on some wet pavement yesterday and felt completely safe taking turns sharp! I would recommend these tires to anybody! With these tires my bike feels tighter and like I can grip the road better!

Jeff St. Louis,  MO Sport rider I own a VFR800 and just replaced the stock tires with a set of Qualifiers. Let me tell ya, what a difference!! I feel like I have brand new bike and the tires give me a lot more confidence when cornering (have already been to the edge). They grip better and heat up faster. As far as the durability, I have put about 1000mi. on these and they seem to wear pretty fast. The tread is starting to knife edge on the sides from doing the twisties. Price was great, though I may try the 2CT Pilot Powers next. However, I don't regret my purchase. Thanks Motorcycle-Superstore!

Jared College Station,  TX Good Tire I put this tire on my CBR 600 and have loved every minute on my bike since. It used to be a little sketchy with the old Dunlop’s, but these are way better. My friend and I had to ride home 3 nights in a row in the rain and it felt almost the same as on dry pavement. I was screwing around and almost popped a wheelie even on the wet parking lot. I've put about 200 miles on mine and they look brand new still.

Martin Del rio Del Rio,  TX Del Rio from Del Rio What can I say, this tire sticks like Gorilla Glue once it gets up to temp, which in south west Texas isn’t long. Way to go Dunlop. This tire goes the distance.
