anybody using Dunlop Sport FM901 tires?
I'm not to impressed by my current OEM Dunlop SP 5000 runflats. They're getting close to the wear marks and I've only got about 13K of fairly abusive driving on them, which would be fine if they were sticky, and they're not.
I'm also not impressed with the Yoko AVS ES 100s after seeing a friend's all chunked up after a few hours on the track.
The Dunlop Sport FM901s look like a much stickier tire than the SP 5000s and are priced much lower than my other choice - S03s. Any thoughts?

Almost any tire that has not been shaved or worn down to about 3/32" will chunk when driven hard on a track day. Actually, the more sticky the tire, the more it will chunk if you have full tread depth.

I would much rather 5000's over Fm901 - 901's are a look before anything else, like Parada, but less performace oriented.
