They must be very old indeed then becuase when I was replacing my SP Sport 9000's 2 years ago they were not around then either.

The SP Sport FM901 is Dunlop’s Ultra High Performance "summer" radial designed to blend sizzling appearance and performance for today's sports cars, coupes and sporty sedans. This also makes the SP Sport FM901 an ideal candidate for customizing vehicles by providing a look and size lineup that provides a wide range of "Plus Two" or "Plus Three" applications.

On the outside, the SP Sport FM901's wide tread features large interlocking tread blocks that are aligned in a directional pattern to enhance dry traction and handling, increase wet traction and resist hydroplaning. Dunlop's "Chaos" tread block arrangement varies the size and shape of the tread blocks to help break up repetitive patterns and minimize noise levels. On the inside, the SP Sport FM901 features two steel belts reinforced by a spirally-wrapped JointLess Band (JLB) of nylon to support the tread area for high-speed durability and predictable handling while minimizing weight and improving ride uniformity. Additionally, a single strand of steel that is spirally-wound forms beads that are rounder for a better fit to the wheel and to further enhance handling and ride quality.

Dunlop SP Sport FM901 tires feature black letter styling and are available in 55-, 50-, 45-, 40- and 35-series; V- and W-speed rated sizes for 15" to 18" wheel diameters.

From here but I don't know how old it is.

so you think they might be any good? :D

I think they are very old indeed, look at the font on the side of the tyre, compare it to that used on SP Sport 9000 (Which itself has been around for some years now) and SP Sport MAXX.

I wouldnt bother, if you particularly want Dunlops get some SP Sport 9000 or MAXX.
