tires for 4ksq



The post asking about tires for a 4k with 7X16 wheels indicated a desire
for 205/45/16 tires...and Dunlop SP8000's were recommended...however, these
tires don't appear to come in 205/45/16's (which, btw, is certainly the proper
tire size for that wheel to maintain the speedo setting).  I want to put the
same tire/wheel combo on my 4kq, and was curious if any listers have experience
with the Dunlop SP9000's, which _do_ come in 205/45/16's.  Are they as good
in dry weather (they are supposed to be better in wet...but does it hurt dry
performance)?  Other tires that www.tirerack.com says fit are:

Michelin Pilot SX MXX3 ZR   $194
Goodyear Eagle GS-D    ZR   $180
Michelin Pilot SX GT   VR   $163
Yoko AVS Intermediate  ZR   $145
Yoko A520              VR   $110
Dunlop Sport W-10      VR   $ 99
Goodyear Eagle HPUltra HR   $154
Bridg Potenza RE910    TR   $ 86
Goodyear Eagle F1GS-D2 ZR   $209 (OE...I don't know what on...???)

Any opinion on any of these being more deisrable as a performance tire than
the SP9000's?

TIA,
