Jacob, those dunlop's have a good write up with a good & sticky result.

I personally think that those Potenza's are Crap !

I Haven't driven a ton on these new Hankook Ventus V12 evo's, but so far they are really nice !

What I would like to do is get them out on the next auto cross and see how they do.

^^^ Jason speaks the truth. I rode along with him while he was drifting with those bridgestones up front. They were so accurate it was unreal. We would be in a full on drift about 60-70 mph and the car just went wherever he steered it. Great tires! They will be my next all around set.

Ooh decisions decisions. The only issue is I'd be spending another $250 for those potenzas as opposed to the nittos and I'm on a budget. I'd wait til next month but honestly I'm scared to drive on my current tires now. Especially in the rain. I couldn't go over 50 yesterday.
