    Michelin Road 2CT's

    Michelin is sending me some of the new 2CT's as we speak. When I get them mounted and have some time on them I'll let you know what I think, but from the success I have seen on the Race 2CT's I expect them to be awesome!

    I have the road 2CT's on now and honestly I don't like them. I've experienced more sliding/loss of traction with this particular tire then any other in my time on the track and the street. Two near low-sides at CMP last month didn't help my assessment.

    Disclaimer:
    Tires are as personal as your underwear. You develop a certain level of comfort with a brand and many times stay with it over time due to the safety net you feel you have developed.

    I'm going to go put on my Pirelli boxer briefs now...

    Interesting that the quality of the former can effect the condition of the latter...

    I will be fitting a set of standard Pilot Powers after wearing out the current set.
    Have heard nothing but good comments about those!
