Has anyone had any experience with these. I'm thinking they will be my next tire. I like the 240, much better than my current 420 treadwear!!

i just put them on mine. the thing i liked about them is that they are a specific high performance car tire unlike some other tires that people run which are essentially truck tires.

from my research, pros- excellent dry and wet traction, cons, some people have complaints about road noise when reaching higher miles on these, and the two rain channels cause some tramlining on some roads but id go for traction>noise any day!

Thanks pukka, i've read about the noise, they can't be any louder than these forsaken nitto 420s

I have Sport Maxxes on my Magnum.
They are quieter than my Nittos that are on my Lexus.

I run the Sport Max 265/35/22 and I love them. Ohh I get them free too! Thanks to Dunlop for the sponsorship!!!

I've had them on my magnum for over 20,000 miles. They are the best tires I've had. They are quiet, handle superbly and are very, very competitively priced.

I ran them on my old car, a Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, and they were excellent. I live in So Cal where we don't get much rain. On dry pavement, they were very grippy, yet didn't wear down fast. When the rains came, they handled great, much better than I expected. And road noise? Nothing compared to these Goodyears my MSRT8 has on now. When the time comes, I'll be putting the Dunlops on my MSRT8 no questions asked! Good luck...

I've got them in 305/30-22 and 265/30-22 and pulled a 2.0 60' with them so I'm happy.

I've got them in 265/35/22's on my maggie and have no complaints either. Great traction.

i run the same sizes 305/30/22 rears and 265/35/22 front. i spin the pi$$ out of them. but i'm hevily modded. very great tires. i used to run Falken--420 tread wear. these are great tires. the only ones i'll use (except Drag radials).
