Tires 850 1996

Like malcolm posted earlier I just bought a set of Dunlop Sport A2's. The customer rating on tirerack.com is very high (i never saw a higher rating)and consumer reports just put them at the top. Discount Tire gave me a better price than tirerack plus 10% off because of their opening the 500th? store. Dollars and cents: An incredible bargain for a premium speed rated tire.
Road Rating: They are classified as a high performance all season. they replaced Mich MXV4's. Much quieter and much more stable (maybe a stiffer sidewall) so much so that I didn't tell my wife I put new tires on to see if she'd notice. "Whats up with the car it feels more solid and faster?" was her uninitiated comment. 80MPH feels like 50, the tires give an incredibly confident ride. Do a little research, but I would throw the Dunny's in as a real good candidate.
