Currently have dunlop dz101, 205/50/15 bought those since decemeber 2010 for $500/each @ racetrack wheels and they have been good thus far. They stand up pretty good to pot holes and bad roads and they look good. However i have noticed it rides pretty hard (i thought it was my suspension) and they make some road noise. ANyone else had the hard ride issue with these tyres? Since in my car i use adjustable shocks and not all my bushings are rubber.
And what is a good tire to look at that is reasonably priced?

Who sells Sumitomo & what's the price?
The R888? That's a very soft compound tyre designed for dry grip first and foremost. They are expensive and won't last you very long. Also terrible for driving in rain.sound boy 64 wrote:Toyo proxies 888 how good are these for daily?
