And I agree about the 3D wintersport tires. They can grip in cold temps but not suck in the summer. I had them on my wife's TSX through 4 NE winters. Great tire.
I have dunlop 3ds now and they are great in the dry. Really hard to tell you're on snow tires.
I love running Dunlop Wintersport 3D's and 4D's on performance cars. They don't feel like winter tires at all when the roads are clean. They offer dry/warm grip on par with performance tires.
I'd get Dunlop Q3's. Q3's have more grip than you'll ever need. They warm up fast(1 lap on the track, or a couple of minutes on the street), grip extremely well, and talk decently well for a street tire.
I just switched from PSS to ZII and did my first event last two days ago. I prefer the ZII for track days. It feels more precise and did well in the wet. I felt that it was a bit easier to modulate braking on the ZII. On the street it seems a bit louder and there is more feel from expansion seams and other road surface defects.
Once you talk about ditching the crap Dunlops that come from the factory and adding a rear sway bar, you are talking big-time fun.
I run 245/40/17 Dunlop Direzza star spec at the track, they have been great
I had a set of Dunlop SP Sport tires on the Sentra a while back. They were good in the dry, decent in the wet and sucked ass in the cold.
I'll never use Dunlop again, although I had the SP Sports as OEM on the GLI not the Signature. They ran like garbage, had a horrible lifespan, and provided no benefit above the Generals I have now. Yet they are much pricier.
I hate the stock tires on my 14 sGT. Very poor road feel. The dry grip is horrendous and the road nose is almost unacceptable. Especially right at 55 miles an hour. I can literally feel the buzzing they produce at that speed. 100% would not buy these tires.
