Tires DUNLOP or KENDA

pretty sure i had some Dunlops on my GTI a decade ago or more, and would buy them again, too.

Had a bunch o different Dunlops on three different cars and they're far better economy tires than the sumitomos or coopers I've used.

Star Specs - 90% of the Bridgestone at 80% of the price.

The Direzza's are pretty sticky and take a lot before they break traction. I'm very happy with them performance-wise.

think I actually have been running my dunlaps at 36 front 38 rear cold maybe a couple psi more, can't remember since its been so long. It usually gains a couple psi (think it was getting to 40 all around hot) on the first run and I bleed back down to that point.

I have Dunlop Star Specs and I absoutly love them! They are sooo grippy its crazy, some say they are a little loud but who cares when you can corner like a gecko on glass!

its a very good tire but dont expect a loong life out of them. good life for a sticky rubber but if you after long life this is not the one to get. this is more performance oriented. i prefer RE-01Rs / RE11 for the stick or G force sport for long life. depends on what your after. but great for autoX / daily driver mix in my opinion.

The original Dunlops (can't remember exact tire now) on the RX8 were useless below 35 degrees. I couldn't even take off gingerly without the traction control and ESC lights going crazy. But in the warm they were quite good.

I liked the feel of Nevegals, but mine started to fall apart about 4 months after getting them. Durability seems to be an issue for myself, and some other people after reading other reviews.

I ran them on my R32, lasted about 20k miles. I was not impressed with them. Not sticky enough of a tire to have so short a tread life, not cheap enough either. I expected a hard tire that would last me awhile, and I got a hard tire that wore out at the same rate as a Toyo R-compound tire. Will not be buying Direzzas again. For the same price range I'd stick with Kuhmo's or Falken Ziex.
