He was, IIRC, given a set of them to test, and he said that's the only reason he's still even driving on them..said he hated them. Don't remember the details, but I believe he was having problems with uneven wear, scalloping, etc. Don't recall if he commented on the driving performance per se (we were talking about LOTS of other stuff---specifically about my car---and I was more focused on those items. The Star Spec discussion was an 'oh, by the way' afterthought).
Anyway, was curious what, if any, experience other folks had had with this tire since (before talking with that tech) I was very seriously considering them as my next tire.

AHH!! Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Specs are my favorite tires!! Ahh!!! If you autocross in cold weather (Like i do), they are THE BEST street tire... The work amazing cold unlike a lot of street tires! (Hancook RS3, Toyo R1R's, etc). So if you aren't burning them up on the track, or have an autocross league in mild weather (50 to 68 degree weather, like me
) Then these are for you!!
Almost TOO good for the street :P lol
