Anyone have any opinions on dunlop sport sp 9000's?
I believe 2 of the mods of the boards use them I forget who though. Questions:
1. Tire wear (tread life)
2. Load weight
3. Quality on wet / dry roads
4. Response
5. Road noise
If you were me would you trade some 16" 02 TL-p rims with 2 month old yokohama avid v4s tires for 17" mazda millenia rims with approx. 1 month old dunlop sp sport 9000 tires + 200 buxs. Would you make this trade? I love my yoko's but I was planning on using the dunlops for 17 type-s rims sitting in my garage.

I have no idea what Mazda OEM offsets are. Hondas are notorious for very high offsets. Other makes (well, at least Toyota and Nissan) have low offsets. Double check before you do the trade otherwise you might have rubbing issues (or have rims that stick out behind the wheelwells)

I believe Hemants (not a mod) had those Dunlops before ... PM him or wait for him to respond.

 

I could care less about the mazda rims because I really just want the tires. They would be for a set of type-s rims sitting in my garage

 

If you have no use for the 16" wheel/tires and you want the 17" SP9000 then just do it. What's the issue here?
