Paul,
Ask the vendors where they're mfg'd. I think the
Dunlops are cheaper cus they're made in India. I
spoke with a gent down in FLA (TR6/w Wires) that was
kickin' himself for not buying the Daytons.
Apparently the Daytons will stay truer
longer....according to him. I think Daytons are made
in Dayton, OH...still. I think Dayton also makes
tubeless wires. I've called Dayton before regarding
refurbing Wires...they'll do it for less than what it
costs to buy new. Does Dunlop offer that?
Cheers,
Todd Bermudez
