Default MT Street Comps for Z06

Are any of you C5 Z06 owners using MT Street Comp tires for performance driving?
I have Good Year's and they are OK for driving but fall short on traction. My Z06 is basically stock but when in competitive driving mode ......

I am interested in how they perform all around and for autocross?

I haven't seen anybody use them yet

I would stick to something proven until more guys test the new Mickeys out, unless you want to be the guinea pig... the Hankook R-S3 has stellar reviews right now and would be perfect for somebody looking for more grip at the autocross

If you have stock wheels, you will need to get them in 255/40-17F/285/35-19R, but even in those sizes, they are still tearing up the guys on all sorts of stock-size rubber

I have run those on my old 06 mustang. They are good tires for street use never autox them. I think the MT street comps are the same as the Cooper RS3 (don't flame me for owning a ford, sold it for the Z lol)

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. I have also found out that Falken 615r are very good for autocross too.
