New tires and Dinan Stage 1

alot o babies · 03-28-2010, 06:28 PM

I just got the new tires on and am still driving slow to break them in, but so far they are amazing! They are so awesomely sticky I highly recommend them! I have the Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec, I got them from tire rack.

Dinan Stage 1 = AMAZING! It is so worth it! The power increase is dramatic! I will post videos soon of how it handles with the new tires and dinan.

Sweet! Weren't those tires ranked #1 in the comparo, with the PS2s being the reference?

Are the tires loud like all the reviews say?

Cool... I think Dinan is expensive for what it just gives though.. IMHO..

Dinan FTW

They were ranked #1 and for only 127 a piece a great deal.

The tires are not VERY loud, sure they are loudER but not very noticeable. You do notice the little pebbles that get thrown up because of how awesomely sticky they are. So far they are great though, it makes the drive not as exciting because with the dinan on my old bad tires if I gassed it there was tons of wheel spin and excitement and now it just grabs the road and hurtles you forward.

Later this week I am going to do a 0-60 to see the difference, I am sure it is much faster. Also it rained yesterday and they did amazing!

do you have spare since these are not rft?

Rando · 03-29-2010, 10:31 AM

Also OP: try to keep track of how loud they get. The trick with tires is that many of them start out okay, but get much worse over time, apparently...

No I unfortunately do not have a spare, so if I get a flat I have to wait it out.
