Basically it looks like Dunlops are overall excellent -- but narrower widths available than desired for me. RE-11's excellent dry and wet, but not the absolute best on either. BFG's, kinda suck on wet, but seem to fare generally better than the others on dry, come in sizes I want (and, curiously, have lower rolling resistance, so that means slightly better gas mileage) -- and I kind of wanted to try something new. Compare and contrast here, BFG vs RE-11 vs Dunlop's: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests/...y.jsp?ttid=172 They are within $6 from the RE-11's, so I think I'll try them out and see what I think. I kind of expect to like them more than the RE-11's except when it rains, but we'll see. I went through this sort of back-and-forth between the Falken Azenis/RT-615 and the Kumho Ecstas/MX's on my old SC'd Celica -- sadly neither come in sizes I can use on the Z. I considered Advan's too, but too expensive for sizes I want. Thanks again, folks, for all the input! ![]()
