How? Because my tires are already shot with a season of street driving and a weekend of autox every other week? Not to mention camber wear...
I go through quite a bit of tires. |

Lucky for you working for Goodyear and getting tires cheaper (I understand than you get deep discount, but not free). I personally cannot afford tires that last 1000 miles.
Are you sure they are good buy for people paying normal prices? Krzys PS What do you know about Goodyear's winter tire plans for next winter? Will we get Dunlop Wintersport 4D? |

I had a ****ty alignment over summer since I kept doing suspension work and a lot of toe and camber, premature wear. you should get 20k miles or more out of them. reguardless, mine still have decent tread just camber wear and are on the old side.

Dunlop Z2s?
Thinking of picking these up in the next month or so from tirerack.
I know I can fit 225/45/17 on my 06 WRX but they are almost $100 more than the standard 215/45/17. I am on a tight budget but want better performance out of my tires. Will the larger tire size make that much of a difference in performance on the street? Also, has anyone had any, I am sure limited, experience with these tires since they came out? |

On the street? No. Stick with the 215s since you have 17x7s.

As for my tires. I exaggerated. I have probably 12k on them between 2 cars and the alignment wear isn't that bad. I do have some cupping from lack of rotation by the previous owner. Either way they aren't worth keeping and like I said I get a really good discount on them anyway so I might as well upgrade. |

but, the fact remains that the ONLY place the Direzza Z2 can be purchased is The Tire Rack ... even if you work for Just Tires or Goodyear
and quit calling them "Star Specs" they are names the "Direzza ZII" and they are good as our preliminary testing last fall showed |
