? Dunlop Sport 8000
 
Anyone here have experience with Dunlop sport 8000? I am considering a set 305/35-17 for the rear and 275/40-17 for the front. Some of the reviews look good but I'd like any feedback you may have.

I've got the Dunlap's and those sizes on my Corvette...Much quieter and better driving than the Goodyears that were stock on the car....

I use the Dunlops on my Mustang with great success. Whup M3 BMWs and run with Z06 Vettes. Car is a '66 Mustang with major chassis mods ala late 60s/early 70s T/A cars.

Dry handling is great and wet handling and wear is acceptible. Noise . . . who cares, particularly with a Cobra.

Get the Dunlops.

Thank you both for your input. This looks like the way I will go. How were they for being true and balancing? The T/A's I will be replacing looked like they needed pounds not ounces to balance...%/

Used fewer weights on these tires than on any I ever balanced.
