Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport vs Michelin Primacy HP — Compared

Those Bridgestones were the OEM tire on our 2013 CR-V. Noisy on the highway is spot on. My Blizzak DM-V1 snow tires are noticeably quieter than the Duelers were.”

“I ended up buying one of these BRIDGESTONE DUELER H/P SPORT 225 60 R18 100V - b/b/71 dB - Summer Tire : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive They had two instore and now have one left. I was a bit dubious as they're not a tyre supplier but a trading company who seem to sell everything. But I gave them a ring and they were helpful= based in B'ham. They even sent a runner to nip down to their store to read off the DOT on the tyre (it was 2018) for me. Anyway I ordered it and it seems really fine. Lables on, brand new, etc. I've put it on as a spare in the boot, but I'd be happy using it. Before that, I thought I'd got a better deal on Amazon as they were offering Dueller HPs from their EU store. It was annoying to have one delivered and to find when delivered it was an Alenza Bridgetone, so I had all the hassle of returning it and refunding. 6 weeks later they had the gall to say i hadn't returned it, but I had kept the Hermes drop-off receipt, and they were very apologetic. Just make sure you double check it is a Dueller HP Sport you're getting from Germany and not a modern equivalent. Bridgetone Europe told me that the Dueller HP, in my size, was discontinued and they couldn't source one.”

“You will notice the difference, but if you don't track, autocross, or canyon carve, I wouldn't bother. You don't have to stick with Primacy but it's not worth the PSS. The only reason I would go PSS in that instance, is if the price is similar to Primacy HP (it might actually be similar). If you drive in snow at all I would not go with PSS. Do not go with anything more aggressive than PSS for day to day street driving. There are people who daily drive more aggressive RS3s, RE-71s, ZII Star Specs, etc. but they track/autocross, know the limits, and take it easy around standing water.”

“Sounds as if Aus is rationalising inventory John. Pity because the HP is a good dirt road tyre with stones around. That said the XM2 is also a tough tyre & designed to take knocks that would damage High Performance summer tyres.”

“BIMMERPOST / Classifieds Asking Price: USD 30.00 Location: ✓ Local Pickup Only Item Interest These tires were removed from my F10 535i M Sport with 15k miles on them. They have 3/32nd (30%) of tread depth remaining. They are great for those of you looking to do some burnouts or donuts. Both tires have not been patched.
