Anyone on here run the Dunlop Dirzza ZII Star Specs yet? I'm debating between these and the R-S3 V2's for autocross this year, but feel like I haven't heard enough about the ZII*'s to make an informed decision yet. I hear the V2's have a bit more trouble in the cold/wet (being in the Chicago region that could be an issue for a few events), but handle heat better.

Unfortunately, due to how new the ZII*'s are and the winter here I don't know anyone who has tried them yet. Any of you guys in the warmer climates get a chance to drive on the ZII*'s yet?

Can't comment on the cold, but the Star Specs are definitely not as good in the wet as the regular ZIIs. They also seem to wear quicker, but that could be in part due to my AW11 with the Star Specs having had an alignment issue for a while. They do seem to have a bit more grip than the regular ZIIs. Also, when I went up north a few months ago, I didn't notice any problems with the regular ZIIs in temps down to the 30s. I did some hillclimbs and had no qualms about pushing it after the first run up the mountain.
