Title: Dunlops
Post by: MUZ720 on January 14, 2009, 05:32:55 PM
OK,
Looking into racing Dunlop's this coming year.  Well if i can get a  price break on them?
My view on tires has been there round and black and cost lots of money but you can't go fast without new ones and would like to run one brand this year instead of whatever i can get my hand on cheap,  so---
Can anyone enlighten me about them? Mostly what's the difference between USA made fronts and English made ones?
And whats this ntec stuff about?
Thanks

I've got no real details but from what I've heard, they have a bit better grip and they also last a race or two longer.

That being said I also keep hearing that unless your really fast (to 10%) you're not going to notice the difference. They're also a bit more money.

And that's my .02. . .
