Thanks, that is good news. I was having a set installed tomorrow but it looks like the weather here will delay that a bit. Unlike most folks report I had VERY poor wear from some Michelin Pilot sports. Adding some Koni FSDs today and excited about the upgrades.

poor wear out of the michelins? I just bought a set (putting Z06 fenders on the rear). how many miles did you get out of the michelins?

My experience appears atypical of what I remember reading when I researched last year what tires to purchase. The pilot sports are quieter and have good grip. With no burnouts, 35 percent perhaps hiway miles, some spirited cornering, basically easy drving, I would say the rears were into the wear bars in the 6K to 7K range. I have to be VERY careful when drving them at the moment with temperatures in the forties and low fifities.
