Tires DUNLOP or FULDA

I have dunlop 3ds now and they are great in the dry. Really hard to tell you're on snow tires.

I love running Dunlop Wintersport 3D's and 4D's on performance cars. They don't feel like winter tires at all when the roads are clean. They offer dry/warm grip on par with performance tires.

I'd get Dunlop Q3's. Q3's have more grip than you'll ever need. They warm up fast(1 lap on the track, or a couple of minutes on the street), grip extremely well, and talk decently well for a street tire.

I just switched from PSS to ZII and did my first event last two days ago. I prefer the ZII for track days. It feels more precise and did well in the wet. I felt that it was a bit easier to modulate braking on the ZII. On the street it seems a bit louder and there is more feel from expansion seams and other road surface defects.

Once you talk about ditching the crap Dunlops that come from the factory and adding a rear sway bar, you are talking big-time fun.

I run 245/40/17 Dunlop Direzza star spec at the track, they have been great

The Dunlop's really aren't a bad tire (Having done tire evaluation for SCCA to decide the spec tires for a few classes i've done quite a bit of performance tire comparison), in the dry I was more than satisfied with the grip of the Dunlop's, it is more than sufficient to suit the \"sportiness\" of the GLI.

I'm on ZII's on my "street wheels" and while they're fine for around town, I've never liked them from a performance perspective. Compared to the purpose built 200TW cheater tires (e.g. RE71R, RT660, RS4) the ZII's give up a LOT of grip and probably seconds per lap at a racetrack.

They did ok on the track for a summer tire (240tw) but I think next season I'm going with something else. For the life of me I could not corner in these

I got my WRX in March, near the end of the winter season. It snowed heavily one day, and I got stuck trying to go up my driveway because I only had the stock Dunlops. AWD was no replacement for winter tires.
