Tires Toyo or DUNLOP
These I am running on my 7 R actually (225/40/18) and had them on my 6 R as well for the last winter. I can highly recommend this tire cause it's good in wet and snowy conditions and in addition very 'sporty' (for a winter tire) if you have dry conditions in winter. Probably the best winter tire I ever had.
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 had toyo proxy 4's on my wheels. were barely stretched though but they arent too bad from what I've seen.
Tire is rubbing! (only when I turn) My attempt at rectifying the problem. Installed BFT fit blocks and it still rubs. Cut the fender liner and it still rubs. I returned the wheels and tires.
Dunlop are utter garbage (loud terrible tread life)
