Default Must say....

I do like my new Pilot Sport 2's.

quieter than the SP9000's I just got rid of and grippy! Let's just say I enjoyed the off ramp this morning. :-)

That is all!

Default Nice to hear this the Dunlops are cupped so bad that came with the car that I have put her away for

for awhile. There is enough tread on them that I can't bear to take them off so just signed up for the badger Audi Clubs driving school in Elkhart in Sept where I plan to make enough higher speed laps to silence them forever.

Excellent tires. Don't think there is anything better right now for this car.

Default Just so you know ...

...some driving schools won't let you sign up unless there is a certain mininum amout of tread left -- for safety/liability reasons. I don't know if that applies to the Audi club event you plan to attend, but I did run into it when considering a track event in Florida. I passed as a result because I had enough tread left for several months of street wear & wasn't ready to buy new tires just for the school. (Also have no place to store extra tires.)

Default Right now I would agree with you.

I'm just thrilled with them so far.

Default Thanks there is all kinds of tread left on these Dunlops however

they are cupped so bad they make so dammed much noise its embarasing(spell check) so until Sept the "Z06" is going to get some miles on it. But thanks for the heads up!!
