    Default Dunlop Sport SP 5000 oem tires not rated very well ? May upgrade...your experience?

    Hey there. Just bought a 2016 Mazda 3 GT sedan. It has the Dunlop Sport SP 5000 tires. I see the ratings and reviews are not very good, particularly in wet etc. They have a "B" traction rating and the UTQG rating is low at 340 too (I imagine this means they may wear out sooner). I realize they are oem tires.

    If you have the Dunlop Sport SP 5000 on your GT, how do you find the tires have been for you so far?

    They're good enough for normal day-to-day driving and the occasional spirited jolt on the highway

    Had them before on my Mitsu.

    Not a tire I would purposely look to purchase. But if you already have em - let them wear out and buy an upgraded set.
