Dunlop Sport 9000

Really nicely rated tires. I obviously haven't had them long enough to make a judgement, but they score well. Only disadvantage is the cost (I paid $350 mounted/balanced)

I have Dunlop Sport 9000's. They hook up really well but a little pricey. I got 1.80 60 foot times last time at the dragstrip without traction bars.

$350 each, yup

Yup. It seems like when everything else is positive, the only negative is price...

They are quiet, very grippy, look great and have great dry/wet performance.

I got out my trusty Durometer(the thing that measures tires compound softness).
The f1 were a 62 (normal)and the dunlops were a 60 (softer).Not a big difference,but a difference.
The tires were the same temp. and both at proper air pressure.
