I have a 2012 iMiev with about 65000km, purchased "new" in 2014. I replaced the front tires two years ago at 37000km after getting 2-3 punctures and leaks. Now it's time to replace the rear tires. The local dealership's only option is Dunlop Enasave, $160 CAD per tire plus installation, $380. The only other option I can find is Zeta ZTR20 https://www.wheelwiz.ca/tires/zeta/ztr20/zt1756015n , which costs $78.99 per tire, but shipping to BC costs $80 (Wheelwiz offers free shipping for 4 tires, but not for 2!).

Minerva Emizero looks great but tiresandco.ca will not ship to my address.

I'm leaning toward the Dunlops because they are a known entity that I'm happy with, even though the cost all-in is about $60 higher than the Zeta.

Has anyone tried the Zeta? If you're in British Columbia, are you aware of any other choices?
 
If you want the best combination of traction and range, I think there's no substitute for the EnaSave. However, I just picked up the SunFull SF-688 for only $36 USD from Pep Boys, 2018 manufacture. Haven't mounted them yet, but they claim both LRR and wet traction.
