Got these to put on my E30. They are an amazing tire. Did fantastic work on road, back roads, highways and on the autocross. For the money they are worth it.

I expect much more from the DIREZZA in corners. It is equal or sightly worst compared with pirreli cinturato p7 (green tire)

Man these tires are a joy to drive in. Super smooth and grippy, the comfort is excellent, marginal noise even at 160+ kmph speeds. The tires is hard hence not that comfortable however, you get the benefit of excellent cornering and stability than others. These are serious improvements over the previous DZ101 and highly recommended.

Grip in the dry was good while grip in the wet was average. Comfort was much better than the Goodyear Directional 5 tires I had fitted on. Unfortunately, the wear rate is reason enough for me not to buy this tire again. At 25,000KM, I had not expected the tires to be at the end of its life.

Just done 10k on Direzza DZ102 on our daily. Plenty of life left, can do $40k+. Quiet tire. 04 Mazda 6 sedan with rx8 wheels
Quite impressed with them. Usually $180-200 Australian for an 18 inch tire we got ours for $144 each. Great tire, can easily compete with $250 tires
Dry 8/10. I also own Z1 Star semis 10/10
wet n/a
value for money 10/10 for $144. 9/10 for $200.
Would buy again if they had correct sizes. Sizes are a bit limited....

Well, actually these tires surprised me a bit. I didn't expect them to perform that good ;) Despite their low price they turned out to be a very strong competitors. I replaced worn out ContiPremiumContacts with Dunlop and I wasn't disappointed. I can't say about the limits as I had never reached them. But with DZ102 you're confident in dry or wet conditions. The grip is fantastic even in hard rain. But be aware of noticable loss of grip on dusted or gravel roads. The noise was very noticable first 1k o 2k miles then it's kinda gone ;)
And I can't tell much about tread wear due to low mileage so far.
Summarizing all said I'd strongly recommend DZ102 to be considered as every day summer tire :)
