I have bitter memorys of a set of firestimes on te Fiat 2000 that went sideways in the wet if you thought about pressing the loud pedal. Although the last A6 I wrote off by gliding into the back of the car in front had
2/3 worn p6000s on it.Dave Baker was thinking very hard :
[Takes car out, fitted with a full set of part worn (3 to 5mm) P6000 for test on a mix of ice and wet roads]Nope, they are absolutely fine. Nice smooth, predictable break away when provoked.
