The DZ101s seem like a great tire too!!! MUCH better treadlife and cheaper than the ones I got. Your price is also within $2 of tirerack! Mine should have quite a bit more grip tho and I really wanted to go with a very aggressive summer tire.

EDIT: you should try advertising on EvoM... i'm sure tons of evo guys would jump all over a deal like that!

I'm psyched I am getting that deal with the HPS pads... I was going to buy those anyway and I need them soon! Paid 205 for the pads - 80 = 125 :HIGH FIVE:

generally, the extreme performance tires at tire rack are good auto-x tires, but do sacrifice a bit in the rain and whatnot. the UHP are the ones that seem to be best all around. i am very much considering the goodyear gsd3s in the summer- i have never heard anything but good about them directly from a few people i know that have them.
