Just spotted pair on ebay for £200? but cant find anything out about them on the web... are they an old model? Look to be good in rain by the tread pattern?

Pretty sure they have been superceded down here in Oz by the Direzza. I did have them on my SS, good in the wet. Tyre technology seems to improve by the year.
I would get the Good Years if it has the V shape pattern, they are popular down here too and get good reports.

I have Dunlop SP3000a's on my car, they are made locally but only up to 17 inch sadly. For the money, absolute bargain, good for the drags and in the wet. Does help that they are original equipment on the Ford Falcon XR6! I have heard rumours they will be bringing out an 18 inch version.
