Only 4 days to burn the rest of the rubber off. :D They'll be here on Wednesday.

The Dunlops aren't even worthy of saving for a track day or something - not much rubber left at all. I got the car a little over 2 months ago and have been very disappointed in general with the tires... (but then they have 26K miles on them and they are two years old and getting hard, so I suppose I shouldn't expect much from them anyway)

I ordered some S-03 Pols Positions! I'm pretty psyched to get these crappy Dunlop 8080's off my rims. I got them from Tires Plus right down the street, and they matched Tire Rack's pricing. I ordered them a little bigger than stock. :D

2 - 235/45YR17 - $158.00 ea.
2 - 265/40YR17 - $195.00 ea.

Total was $746.10 for the rubber (they match price + the $40 shipping), free mounting (makes up for the shipping), and $10 per tire lifetime balance.

From almost everything I've read, these tires are going to be night and day from my factory Dunlops.
