haha I'm just kidding, but I agree that the BF goodrich traction t/a are good tires. They are pretty beefy. My car is basically meant for dry flat areas with no gravel only. Stupid Direzzas..

i like the traction t/a's for what i use them for. i really like the michelins i have on my tc wheels. the ride is sooooooooooooo much nicer. highly recommend michelins to anyone that can afford them. right now i have the pilot sport ps2s on the front when i go to the canyons and pilot primacys on the front for daily driving. both are fairly grippy tires, but the ps2's are by far more grippy. reason i have two different models of michelins on the car is because i snagged them from work for free. they were tires that were gonna get recycled because customers got new tires. usually what happens is that sometimes customers will buy all 4 new tires at once and the rear tires are the only ones that are really worn out. the pilot primacy's have like 7/32 left on them as well as the ps2's, but the ps2's have a little more wear on the outside edges. not bad, but looks like the car they were on had alignment issues. can't complain about free.
