I have used Dunlop 550L-15 racing tyres on a vintage sports racer for years & am curious about the pros & cons of using them on the street on a replica rally car (BJ8). I believe their dimensions are

Usual reasons for not running a race tire on the street are thinner sidewalls that won't hold up to being curbed, softer compounds leading to quick tread wear and lack of rain grip. The Dunlop vinta

I can only step in what Rich wrote. I also love the Dunlop Road Speed RS5 Tires and can only recommend them. The only factors against them is the price and their specific handling on wed roads. But i
