They tried to convince me to go for the "SP sport R7". They claimed it was the same compound as the D93J's, but had a period style tread pattern.

Did they give you a price ?

Has anyone used these (10") and have any comment ? (can't find any references via search here or google (other than japanese that translates into confused haiku :? ))

Would look good on the historic rally mini project... but do they handle for road use?

From Stuckey site :

R7 (CR65)
Dunlop continue to make historic and vintage race tyres in the original moulds. These are made in a modern compound and construction which best enhances the performance of the original tyre.

Quote:
SP SPORT R7
This tyre is typical of the wide range of 'Street Legal' tyres from Dunlop, incorporating reduced tread depth, high stability pattern, and race tyre construction and tread compound. This tyre pattern is based on the historic R7 pattern and is available in sizes to suit the original Mini
