Veuros are a hidden gem IMO. Despite Dunlop being a popular brand in Pakistan, when people are shopping for a 'high end' comfortable tire the focus is always towards Yokohama, Continental, Michelin, Pirelli, etc. Only once you personally experience it do you realize that it's a brilliant tire yet cheaper than comparable offerings from the aforementioned brands.

@Rahat083144 any recommendations where i can get these veuros in Lahore that are not smuggled?

Rahat083144 (Rahat) 2020-02-20 19:15:20 +0500 #124

No idea bro, as I am based in Karachi.

asharab.butt 2020-02-20 19:16:21 +0500 #125

Ah ok i thought you were from Lahore. Maybe someone else can recommend a seller.

Rahat083144 (Rahat) 2020-02-20 19:22:38 +0500 #126

No, unfortunately. But if you're in the market for new tires, Veuro should definitely be checked out. I evaluated lots of tires and all my preferred choices fell by the wayside for one reason or the other. Eventually with nothing left, I went ahead with Veuro and boy was that a good decision.

Lmao at this point anything will be an upgrade. I've been using the original euro stars since 2016 and at 50k they're living their last breaths. Definitely will check these out.

Rahat083144 (Rahat) 2020-02-20 19:36:44 +0500 #128

Same here - I had swapped my 33k driven BG Luxos from 2016 for these tires. Needless to say, there was a hell of a lot of difference.

itz available at tyre point, you can check its website aswell for confirmation and i think they have the original non smuggled stuff.

anon35615524 2020-02-20 22:15:45 +0500 #130

Yes brother. Rightly said! They are available with tyrepoint:

Rahat083144 (Rahat) 2020-02-20 23:03:56 +0500 #131

Yes but the latest variation is VE303 and it's not available in too many sizes either. So probably gonna be hard to find it.

devilslayer (devilslayer) 2020-02-20 23:47:31 +0500 #132

yes u r ryte, they have VE 302, mine is also VE303 which is the latest and tyrepoint is expensive aswell.

Please go through following thread. It might help regarding buying Dunlop Veuro tyres:

(I think, brother belongs to Karachi, and managed to buy tyres from Karachi)

my colleague got advan db previously on my recommendation
it was time to change them and he asked me which ones to get
i informed him advan db no longer available and to get blue earth
he called me from the tire shop saying he is getting CC6. i stopped him explaning to him that his car and seats(learther ones) are very stiff. CC6 will make it worse. somehow the shop keeper convinced him to get the tires.(but also offered him check warranty of 3-4 days)

hash4u (hash4u) 2020-03-17 02:19:22 +0500 #135

anyways on 4th day he called the shop
and threw the CC6 out
V552 was back in stock by then
paid the diff and moved on

I'm using continental cc6, should i install yoko advan db v 552 or blue earth next time?

hash4u (hash4u) 2020-03-17 06:19:06 +0500 #137

You got pretty expensive tires
Enjoy them while they last
When time for change comes,
Will suggest from market available options

Bluearth is better.....advan db is currently not available....I checked everywhere....there is also one other brand Goodyear eaglesports....they are really good tyres as well...

i think continental are getting good recommendations from tyre dealers probably because the importer is giving good margin on these tyres.

all shop keepers have kind of started pushing people for continentals. its related to their dealing margins.

yokohama is superior. may it be ES32, AE50 of V552.

Dear. What's the update on CC6 performance?
The tires are getting better with each passing day. I will post a detailed review once the break in period of 1k km is completed. The official website asks for 500 miles break in so that's why I am waiting and not jumping to conclusion immediately. For now I would agree with review of the two members @Einstein and @naizi_x. All the points they mentioned I have been through less the puncture part. Driven 700 KM and so far no punctures. The dealer has provided me with a replacement warranty in KMs and time frame of 6 months. Here is the link of tire break in.
https://www.continental-tires.com/car/tire-knowledge/tire-change-fitting/changing-tires/braking-with-new-tires

PS Today as you all know it is raining cats and dogs and the tires have already been driven 700 KM and I was highly impressed with the wet grip of cc6 while driving on motorway and later on city roads. I can say that wet grip is def better than advan db. Another aspect was hydroplaning. On surprise puddles in high speeds advan DB used to happily enter aqua planning giving you a scary experience. With cc6 encountered many puddles but Alhumdolellah there was no scary aqua planning like I used to experience in DBs.

Stay tuned for detailed review, in sha Allah.

so guys I am back again after a gap and now I have driven my cc6 for about 4k Kms. I think 4k km is good enough distance for breaking in, no? and guys the dry grip of the tires have significantly improved enough to my satisfaction, Alhumdolellah. now i feel like 19 20 difference with my old advan dbs but then it is coming with significant higher tread-ware rating of 380 which is better than yokohoma which is good for people like whose car is mostly parked and used on long weekend trips. This review may help anyone looking to buy cc6. Remember to give enough break in time to these tires because like most of the smuggled tires which has got no gel etc coming on new tires these legal imports have those gels on them which makes it very bad in dry road tractions and I was very disappointed in start but now Alhumdolellah I am satisfied. feel free to ask any queries if you have and I will try to answer being user of advan db for about 60k km and now using cc6 for about 4k km.
Thanks
