Not alot of places like to fit them unless you buy them form the fitter.
I would pay the extra and get Metzler Z6's, great alround tyres

I bought those dunlops from that site great value. Alot of people seem to dislike the 204's but they seem ok to me, cant knock the price.

Well they're both round and black, and that's about it, neither would encourage spirited riding to be honest.
Mind you they should wear well, but keep it upright  D 204's are probably the best of the two, but not by much, predictable (when warm) but not great fun. As others have said, if you can get something better, it just detracts from the riding pleasure. Cheers Mark.
