Nice Brakes too!

I think they're not too shabby for an affordable three season tire. They were very very good in the wet, and good on the dry. I think treadwear is going to be the sticking point. I'll pull one off and clean it up soon for another treadwear photo.
I did over drive the tires a bit this weekend, pushing them to test limits while I was seeing where my own limits were. Managed to cup the edges on the front driver's side.
The brakes are insane. Eye popping. On those dunlops, on my best lap (according to Harry's Lap Timer) with the AP kit I hit a sustained 1.2 G's of lineal deceleration. Also multiple data points of 1.02 to 1.06 lateral G.
Fun weekend.
Edit: Went flower picking off turn 7 at the track. This little slice of nature hung on all the way back to the paddock:
