There isn't a direct compare with Re-11s and Z2 yet.

But here's a tirerack.com extreme tire with the Re-11s and Dunlop Z1 star spec (previous version of Z2):

Tire Rack Tire Test - Testing the New Extremes of Extreme Performance Summer Tires - YouTube

The Bridgestone came on top but Dunlop Z1 star spec came pretty close (correct me if I am wrong, but it was a #1 tire from previous test).

The New Dunlop Z2 is suppose to be better than Dunlop Z1 star spec (according to tirerack):

Tire Test Results : Dunlop Direzza ZII Introductory Track Drive

So I would say the Dunlop Z2 should be better or even closer to the RE-11s.

But the bottom line is, I think it's safe to say "Dunlop Z2 is better than stock in rain or shine."
