Anyone used a set of these or have any views on them?
Muchachas gracias
They are quite good actually, I wouldn't put them as having quite the outstanding wet grip that the Pilot Road 3s have, and if you really get a shift on (I do mean almost dry track day levels of shifting), then you can feel the tyre "flexing" a bit - it's a bit of an odd feeling but they never let go!
They are (or were when a mate of mine was looking) a fair bit cheaper than the main alternatives too, but the main reason I ended up with the Michelins was that I just preferred the "feel" I had with them!
