I had to take my zed out this morning, the first time in the wet for quite a while. I normally take my other car out when its pissing down but anyway, (get on with it!), I just noticed that on almost every pull-away the arse end was-a-wrigglin' and on most corners the beast kept 'drifting' to the other side of the road. A bit scarry at times!.

 

I am running Pirelli P6000's at the 'mo, and have come to the conclusion that they are shit when driving in the rain (still have about 3-4mm depth) There not that 'grippy' even on dry roads. A friend of mine has a TVR Grithith or whatever its called and he recommended Bridgestones?.

 

Question really is - does anyone else on here use P6000's (or have used them), and does anyone also have experience with Bridgstones??.

 

Cheers

 

Tony.

Pass on both of them,But what I can tell you try BF Goodrich Profiler,and tell me if you can slide it in the wet I would not try anything else.
