Tire Rack shows a user review for the Dunlops, not too favourable:

"These tires are the OEM fitment for my car. My first impression of these tires was that they were quiet, had OK grip levels for normal driving and had dull response - to this day, my opinion hasn't changed. I understand Mitsubishi chose an absurd tire size in order to maximize MPG, but having seat time with a car wearing Bridgestone RE92's, the turn in is mushy, even at 40 PSI, and the tires howl a lot before losing traction.
Speaking of traction, there isn't much. Lateral bite is very strong, assuring you they'll deliver in a panic braking situation - longitudinal traction is another story. These tires aren't dangerous by any stretch of the imagination, even in 5 degree freezing cold winter nights, but for someone who has a heartbeat for racing, they'll be disappointed.
My car also has a very conservative suspension tune, designed for countries like Thailand where many roads are poorly paved, or gravel or dirt. I'll be changing my springs and sway bars soon, to see if the soft suspension settings are the bigger culprit to the car's poor quality of handling.
These tires also don't cut through deep snow very well - or my car's 1,950lb weight is to blame. But they'll get you home in one piece. If 165-65R14 is your only choice, stick with the Potenzas. You'll be happier in the long run."
Also the RE92s are within $1 now at $88, they were $98 last week.
Odd that since the dunlops came out tirerack has shown them as back order but they have got "best seller" status now.
There's also a new pirelli snow tire in our size, the description says LRR but it's not listed as LRR in 165.
Even after reading that I just pulled the trigger on 2 new Enasave's, I did a lot of searching and not much came up, but I did find this fuel log off a
mirage on ecomodder that convinced me the Enasave has a lot of potential.
