Tire choices

Nizam says he is interested in Dunpop SP8000 tires.

Allow me to comment, please.

I had them on a non-Alfa (Brand C, with a bow-tie).  I got 20,00 decent miles
out of them.  They still had good tread at that time (ahout 2 1/2 years) and
they went "off".  Loss of traction.  Much embarassing smoke when accelerating
uphill in a turn.  Definitely had to cool things until I could get new rubber
under the car.  Until that time, though, I was quite satisfied with overall
performance and ride quality.

76 Alfetta GT, with Dunplop W-10 Sports in its immediate future.  The Goodrich
ZRs are now officially out of round.  I traded for these to get the 15" wheels
they were attached to.  They appear to still have a good amount of tread left.
 Somewhat disappointing, as I was hoping ot put off a new tire purchase for a
bit.  Oh, well.  Whatcha' gonna do?
