I have them. Comparing to the es100, they grip just as good, low road noise, more comfortable ride, theadwear is better, but softer sidewalls..Overall its a good tire for the money. (i got them for 52 a tire) My only complaint is that the sidewall is soft. The tire does well in the rain too.

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...DZ101

Has them for 58 a piece..I guess it was on special when i bought them. If you don't want to go though the hassle of buying online, if you have a Discount Tire Center anywhere near you and bring them in a print out of the tire price, they MUST honor it. Thats what i did. They try to charge me like 70 a pop and i show'd the print and they did it. I'm running 205/50/15 on a 15x7 wheel. BTW the ziex isn't as good as the dz101's.

the Flaken Ziex 512 is an all season tire.

If you are talking about a the Dunlop Direzza DZ101 it is a performance summer tire. I don't see the two being in the same catagory.

Currently Tire Rack has some sort of rebate on most, if not all, dunlop tires. I think you can ask "clay@tirerack" on here for specifics.

Cheers.

The Direzza DZ101 is similar to the Yokohama ES100 and Kumho Ecsta SPT. The $50 rebate at the Tire Rack is on a set of four, through April 1.

The only 15" size that the DZ101 comes in is 205/50-15.
