Anyone have the ECSTA MX?
Seems this is the highest-performance tire available in the sizes I need for the Elise.
Anybody have it?
Just wondering what I should expect.
Cross-shopped with Pilot Sport Cup, KDW2, PZero Corsa, etc.
Looked with Luke's help yesterday through what was available, it's the only one in these sizes.

I had them on the GTI
Very good tire for the money. Comparable to the S-03 I had before. I've heard that they're not as good in the wet as the S-03, but we see very little rain here in CO.

Should have specified...
... this is for a car that only sees fair-weather driving, gets driven once a week.
A little street driving & the occasional track event or autox.

I own 2 sets of MX's
I love them. Best bang for the buck.
Excellent dry traction, good wet traction. Ok passenger confort, but one draw back - They are pretty loud.
But nothing in MX's price range comes close to beating it's performance.
