Dunlop SP 5000's
I just got a great deal on these tires (2 for $250 Canadian) so I slapped a pair on the back. Anyone with previous experience with these tires?

I have the SP 5000's and am happy with thier performance. The ride and response of the tires is great! They seem to be wearing quickly, could just be my driving!!

I got 4 of these from a friend in 255s for 250$ american!
they really arent that good compared to most other tires ive had.
they have too much sidewall flex and the tread patern is awful for launches but they are z rated and they do seem to be lasting a long time. not to mention they handle better in the wet than most.

88 WS6 T/A 305 TPI--
K&N,Air foil,hypertech chip, thermostat+fanswitch
free mods, dynomax catback, urethane motor+trans mounts,
SSM SFCs, Bilsteins
very trick homemade ramair, Accel 300+ ignition system.
Planning: hedman 1-5/8 longtubes, NOS 150 plate, world 305 heads, replace the "peanut"! and other susp. mods.
