Dunlop Wintersport 3D

They won a comparison test in one of the last few Auto Motor und Sport magazines which prompted my dad to order them. This morning at the tire center they had a whole stack of these same tires there. Looks like other folks are going for them too. Anyway, some pics.  :ohyeah:

I had a set of Dunlop SP wintersport M3's, good tires. Dunlop makes some good performance focused winter tires.

I am using the very same tire, just different size, on a set of winter steelies for the WRX.  I really like them.  They actually ride better/quieter than the Pirelli all-seasons that I run the rest of the year.

I think my next set of summer tires will be actual summer tires, Dunlop Sport Maxx.

Thanks for the feedback. So far I really these tires. Took the E320 out for a spin today and they feel softer, more comfortable yet more stable too than the old Dunlop winter tires we had on the car.  :ohyeah:

What were the old Dunlop tires you had on the car, Wimmer?  I'm looking at some for my car too.  I'll probably end up with the Graspic DS-2.  I'm still trying to play around with how small of wheels I can put on the car.

After you wake up with the sun at 6am on someone's floor, coughing up cigarette butts and tasting like warm beer, you may well change your opinion on this matter.
