Focusing on the comparison between Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun and Dunlop Sport BluResponse, two summer touring tyres that compete in the same category.
Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun
Coming from the Japanese manufacturer Falken, the ZE310 Ecorun is a tyre meant for everyday driving on dry and wet roads, scoring conspicuously in tests particularly for its dry handling features. According to the Autobild test, it stood out for its dry handling, finding its place at the 6th position out of 51 tyres. Notably, the tyre also performed well in the ACE test, securing the 5th position out of 9 for its aquaplaning, dry driving behaviour, and wet handling.
However, after analyzing all the test data, some weaknesses can be identified. The tyre had shown some minor shortfalls in environmental performance and efficiency. Despite these, the Falken ZE310 Ecorun still marks down an overall good impression with an 81% rating on our site.
Dunlop Sport BluResponse
The Dunlop Sport BluResponse, from the renowned Dunlop manufacturer, also excels in its performance in dry conditions. It actually did better than the Falken tyre in overall positioning, landing at the 2nd place in the ACE test out of 9, with a distinction for its prowess in aquaplaning, dry and wet handling.
The Dunlop Sport BluResponse however didn't perform as good as Falken in the Autobild test, finishing in the 8th position and recognized for its rolling resistance and comfort. The ADAC test placed it further down at 16th position out of 50. Moreover, it demonstrated some weaknesses in wet conditions and environmental performance, as well as a relatively lower mileage, yet manages to secure a good 83% overall rating on our site.
In conclusion, both tyres display great performances, with Falken ZE310 Ecorun standing out in terms of dry handling, while Dunlop Sport BluResponse shines with its strong performances both in dry and wet conditions. Depending on specific needs such as dry or wet conditions preferences, and the importance of environment and efficiency, one might be slightly more suited than the other.
