Default Dunlop Direzza Z101 no good

Just bought a set and they suck. Gives a sedan feeling like you are drifting when you make fast lane changes or take a quick turn...Oh well. I guess ill be ordering some OEM RE050's...

I didn't know there were different versions of the RE050. Which version were used as the OEM for the AP2 S2000?

How long have they been on your car? as they do have a release compound that needs to burn off for maxuim traction.

Well that's good to know. I was looking at Tire Rack's site and notice the RE050A in 18's but not the pole positions. Anybody know if they exist?
