Just an fyi, the Dunlop ZII has been replaced by the Dunlop ZII Star Spec. They will have limited quantities of the old tire and i would guess these tires were manufactured last year some time. Still a great tire and a good deal.
Yep, the ZII's are discontinued and the Star Specs are $35/tire more (also with the $50 rebate on a set of 4). I just couldn't justify the additional cost considering I'll rarely make it to the track. I don't recall the date manufactured without looking at them again... I wouldn't expect there would be any issues with them if they were manufactured a year (or even two years) ago. Should I be concerned? Guess I've never bought any "old stock" tires before.
Yeah, the star specs have about a 3% improvement over the regular ZII. Not worth an additional $150 for me, seeing as how I'll make it to only a few autocross sessions a year. A year old tires are nothing. Usually at 4-5 years of sitting around unused is where new tires start to be a problem. Tire Rack also checks tires for dry rot (the concern with old tires) before shipping them.

@Ryan FailRad I got headers and a downpipe off ebay and they didnt quite fit right so some maneuvering of stuff had to be done and its a tight fit but the headers and downpipe fit on my car. I then had them run 3in exhaust straight back to a flowmaster 40 and Id say my car is about as loud as your car lol. I may have to get some dynamat to put down in the back to calm it down just a bit, but it sounds like a big v6 or small v8 lol. I was at nf this weekend and heard a couple cars running and Im like dang that exhaust is way quieter than mine is and they had the big can type muffler on the car too but idk what else they had for exhaust. I like mine cause its got a semi stock look to it but its a lot louder lol
Know anyone who has one installed, or if anyone who knows how the belt will be run moving forward? I can't seem to find anything and I kinda figured some sort of instructions about how to do it would be included in the "kit"
Well, after 4 trips to oreileys and me wanting to place a grenade in my engine bay, the size is, 39.25 inch.
I guess but Napa has better quality parts and we price match the same quality stuff. Im just giving you crap, I have to cause I work at Napa lol
I would have said, "i have to cause you're FailRad". I shop at Napa myself. But Ryan's a newb, you have to forgive him for his newbieness.
