They're much better in terms of losing control of your vehicle, particularly
in wet conditions! Just ask the guy in our local Ottawa-area Morgan club who
put his +4 around a tree a couple years back! He was fine, but he sold the
redlines aqap.

I've seen the Redline pictures and everyone talks about getting
them. Is
there something special about redlines other than the asthetics of
having
the red as opposed to white?

I want to replace my Michelin redlines with a more modern tire.
Another
set of Michelin's is out because of their handling characteristics
and
cost. I have the information on the Coker redline tires, but am
curious
of others experiences with them and with whatever else is out there.
My Michelin redlines are 23 year old factory originals but still
appear
to be in good shape with plenty of tread - I just don't trust them
for
running around and don't need the hassle of a blowout. I have
considered keeping them on a second set of rims or aluminum wheels,
but
the cost is a factor.
Any thoughts on different tires - or are there any wheels taking up
space in anyone's garage.
