Lol, yeah, they are still on the car. I took that pic yesterday.

They were always a shitty tire, particularly in wet weather. I honestly haven't noticed that they are any worse then they ever were at this point. If anything they seem to grip better now.

I drive the Accord which has healthy rubber through most of the winter anyway. I already know what I'm getting for the RSX, just been lazy.

Probably order them next week and then just have to wait for a nice day to drive the car and get them mounted.

I know that... A lot of good it did them though as they still ended up faster.

Its deceiving because of the way the tire is designed. They are actually worn pretty evenly across. I've always kept them at the recommended pressure, and rotated them, etc....

I don't drive the car in the snow so its not really an issue there.
