Cup 2 Connect

[galaxy]

Any experience? The connect feature is discontinued and apparently not available anymore, but the tires are. AND, it has a 240 treadware. A very preliminary bit of homework suggests better wear and better wet performance (relatively speaking of course). Thoughts? 240 is as good or better than some other tires a lot of peeps are running.

Great tire. Not worth extra money, like they used to be, but if you can get them the same or cheaper than standard cup 2’s, buy em.

So what makes them great? Better wear/grip ratio?

What caught my attention is the 240 treadwear on a capable (and great looking) tire like this. Just repeating what I read, it has a tad more tread depth than a regular cup 2, which in whole or in part contributes to the clamed better wet performance. I don't know why the 240, but that indicates to me a little better street manners (life, drivability) away from the track.
