What do you guys think of these tires? I'm looking for 215/50/16 and there are only so many to choose from.

i got the direzza star specs and cant wait to check em out, all the reviews have been awesome ( car is still in shop so i must wait)

I believe these tires are different? Too bad the star spec dont have the size I want

yes they are different, dunlops are good tires though. i wanted 225/ 40 and no one makes it besides nitto (not tryin to run nittos) so I went with the star specs anyway

[jh604]

big difference between the two?

I have the dz101s in 215/35/18

awesome tire. Good dry/wet traction, stopping distance and very little road noise. They're directional so your limited on the rotation, so keep that in mind. I'd buy them again

The Star Specs are a much more aggressive tires than the DZ101s. The DZ101s are still a very good performance summer tires, but the star specs are a softer compound that heats up quickly meant for competition uses. They are still useable street tires, but aggressive ones. It would depend on what you are planning on doing with the car that would make you decide which ones to get. Tire Rack has very good comparisons and info on the two.

I'm running those on my Ep at the moment.Great traction, very little road noise.My only complaint is they suck in the rain.
