Dunlop DZ101 Installed

Edit.

Just got a set of Dunlop DZ101s for the summer and they are pretty solid for the price. The 225/40/18-255/35/18 set-up is less harsh. I'm having no rubbing issues currently. The sidewall offers a good amount of extra wheel protection as an added bonus. They look aggressive on the car too.

Happy to be finally free of runflats!

Have a nice day

I have no idea what you just said, but if you think DZ101's are hot shit, if you ever try some Star Specs you might just piss yourself.

I know the DZ101 is an old design and not nearly as good as Star Specs.

I was only joking around in my previous posts but I'm getting chewed up for it.

Ultimately, I was just happy that an inexpensive tire happened to offer a lot of rim protection, smoother ride, and an aesthetic look that I prefer. I hope to try Star Specs on the next time around.
