    Mayb they aren't the real english ones from old. But all in France now. Not too sure really. But anyway they are still good tyres whether they are French or English

    If you can run slicks theyll last longer than 212's you know. I pay 280 a set new but think RRP is 330. Worth it, they last forever

    And apparently all new dunlops are french, they lost the english factory :( Hope theyre not the shitey french machine made ones though, the hand made ones are noticeably better

    I would do that but i still use the now again on the road, so its just easier in my busy life to run the same tyre for both ;)
    but if I ever track only bike then I will run slicks for sure :)
