they are the "semi" slick ones correct? (although im sure they are not an R compound)

they look like they would be fun in the wet laugh.gif

Nah ...

No where near as sticky as say the Bridgestones, Advan's or Dunlops ...

It's like Walt Disney world on ice when it gets even a bit damp laugh.gif

I did have Michelin Virage GTX's on, but they are rooted

I had 205/55/16's up front and 225/50/16's to the rear. Every time I went out I dropped time of my pb (except when it rained) so I am not sure what their true potential was. they were also made in 98 - 99 so, they were old as.

They did survive 9 sprint sessions, and still had some tread left on them, not much though.

The attached photo is the front tires after driving for a couple of weeks with bent suspension bits... as you can see, there aren't many channels for wet weather driving dunno.gif

(I am in no way inferring that this is the cause for my wet weather driving skills... just for public record and stuff) wink.gif

did you see any improvements Jeff? I am guessing the new IC would have been most noticeable on the Clubman because of the two long straights???
