Do you really think those Avons will be OK on the highway in a rainstorm? I have driven on autocross gummies coming home from an Autocross. They were terrifying. I was at 45 MPH and other cars and trucks were flying past me and I was dancing all over the road with virtually no traction. I decided then and there I would never have autocross special tires again. I have driven to 12 different Porsche Parades on both coasts and the only Parade that I did NOT have to drive through rain was the Fort Worth Parade in 2004.

I would love a decent set of summer performance tires. The only tires I can find that are honest street tires are P-6000 and those are only S rated. I have not been at triple digit speed since Laguna Seca last year but I do like to keep a track day as an option.
