I'm about to try my first set of DR's on the Achieva. Honestly, I would rather have slicks. I was kind of pigeon holed into the DR's. Needed a shorter tire. Most of the short slicks, there aren't many to begin with, are made for 13" rims. To do this for our car, requires you to do a lot of work converting the front brakes to smaller diameter discs. Hence, I went with the DR's to maintain the 14" stock wheels.
Probably be next week before we can see if they yield any positive results.
