(I currently have Pirelli P6000s, which are exceptionally s**t in the wet) ________________________________________ the zombie apocalypse started long ago, only no-one realised most can talk and drive |

I'll put them to 36 tomorrow on the way home from work and report back. I'm not convinced. ________________________________________ the zombie apocalypse started long ago, only no-one realised most can talk and drive |
