Dunlop SP Sport FM901

"1999 Saab 9-3 tire size 205/50R16 These tires offer excellent handling and much less "bump steer" then the OEM Michelin HX pilots. I have put about 5000 km's on them and my only complaint is that they are getting a bit noisy. Great for the price. "

"I purchesed a set of Dunlops Sport Fm901s 205/40/17 and set of 17' Motegi MR7 for my 92 Honda Civic Sir2. The complete setup performes really good. I took power steering out of my car and turning the wheels with my new setup is easier then with my factory sertup. I take corners at 80 kmh and the tires stick nicely. You have to try these tires for your self. Priviously I had a set of Toyos and I paid $1000 for them, and these Dunlops out performe the Toyos (and coast less). "

"I got some 205/40R17 and the are great! They grip excellent in wet and dry conditions. I'm quite pleased with them. They only have one fault in my opinion and that is that they are a little on the loud side compared to my old tire (Michelin Roadhandler Sport on a 190/60R14), other than that they are great!"

"Car: '98 Acura Integra Type R Not too bad a tire. Especially for the money. Soft sidewalls though. Good straight line grip. Slightly nervous initially in corners, but one in the corner it holds well and is predictable. Upping the pressure a few psi helped out alot. I'd give it a 3.5 out of 5"

"2000 US Honda Civic Si/Canadian SiR I replaced my FM901's after 4000 miles and was happy to do so. I took these tires to an open track event and put a little more than 100 miles on them at the track. At the end of the day, cracks had propagated under all the tread blocks on the outside shoulder of each tire. My friend ran his car at the same track that day too on Ecsta 712's and his tires still looked new, mine were just a few miles away from throwing chunks of tread rubber off. Beyond that, dry and wet traction were average at best, transient repsonse characteristics and noise were horrible. Ride comfort was as good as stock, and I can not comment on treadware. These tires were slow to respond to aggresive steering inputs and quite noisy, I was glad to move on to something else."

"Hey I just got these tires for my 93' Honda Accord size 17". They are the best you can get from the price. They have nice grip, they are not noisey at all."

"Very good "bang for the buck" but noise can be a problem depending on your car insulation. The 901 produces sound at a higher pitch than most all season tires and if this is what is let through by the insultation you get a whine as I do in my 98 Prelude. Wet handling a big plus over the all-season Bridgestones."

"I bought these tires about 5 months ago and they're still going strong. I bought a set of Konig Subzero's and a set of these FM 901's 225/40/18's on my '93 Probe GT and what a great setup. Wonderfull tire for the performance enthusiast. There is a slight road noise, but its all forgotten once you push these tires into a turn. They are a good buy for the price."
