Do you drive on a race track like a ricer to work everyday?




sorry, pump a tire to 40+psi and it will balloon the tread.

not at all, im just asking what your driving habits are so i can get an idea of what you are expecting out of a tire. Sounds to me like you need a performance tire and a snow tire

i am an OCD "get the best for my money" type thats all. most of my time is spent on the highway stuck in baltimore traffice. but the BFG touring TA's it has right now are pretty scary in the wet. im just trying to figure out if the dulops have a stiffer side wall, the fact they said "initial turn in response is crisp" makes me believe it is stiff. just weighing my options

bmore gets blasted with heavy snow every now and then, but i still have not gotten stuck even when useing the crap tastic bfg garbage tires on it now. im mostly concerned with the best feel/true grip i can get for my money with will work all year long in cold or warm rain.

i am set on the dunlops. this vid is taking the top 2 from their UHP (the DWS was part of that line up but finished last) and the top two from the HP class (the dunlop was 2nd in this class out of 4).

Jimmi, you have been facebooked. I think I'm going to go with the DSW IN 205/50/16. Unless your bored and want to find me something better for the same price.
