Default Tire question

Anyone ran the good-year F1 supercar tire?

If so, what's your opinion about em?

Not sure if they are the same tire, but the ones that came from the factory on my 2008 C6 say "F1". I can't wait to get them off and get something else on there. The only thing holding me back is the car only has 12k miles. They are not bad when new, but get dramatically worse after about 5k miles - Very poor traction, especially when it is under about 70 degrees outside and down right dangerous in the rain.
