Dunlop SP Sport 5000 - review

I was in need of some new tires and decided to go with these as the replacements to my Eagle Kdws (i believe) that were on my car. i bought them in the 245/50z16. they are on all fours.

Review:
Nice deep tread, good looking tread design, a lot of contact to the ground, good rain traction.
I also notice an improvement in handling and road noise as well as a more comfortable ride then my original tires had. so i have nothing bad to say about them. they were 135 a piece at just tires. hope this helps someone.

Thanks Dan!

I was just looking at the 255/50/16 Dunlop SP SP5000's for our '98 Trans Am.

Your review just talked me into a set of them!

I have a set of those as my 'off season' tires, they are great tires. I love the way they handle, look, and feel. and you sure cant beat the price. The treadwear is decent also. I have been very happy with Dunlop. both times i have used them.
