Mox liked them when he had them. He has since moved on to the latest technology.

Jason has them as well, iirc, and he likes them as well.

There are better tires out there now. The StarSpecs were really good when they first came out but the Kumho XS, Nitto NT05, Bridgestone RE11, Yokohama Advan Neova AD08, are all better tires currently. I run the Kumho's and they provide a better experience than the Dunlops.

But as I've always said, tire opinions are relative to what the person giving it has driven on and what they use them for.

Used them on my aunt's evo in autox. They gripped pretty well. I already bought some for summer and i can't wait to see how they compare to my RE01s. The way the tread looks it would be great for daily driving through torrential down pours.
