Like the new color, thanks OP!

Like the creme version sidewalls but don't expect them to stay anywhere near that clean for very long.

Am OK with the root beer classic color, but not the compounds.

One day I'll be happy. One day.

What do you mean you are not OK with the compounds for the color?

Oops, I can see how that's unclear. I meant the Conti GP Classics are a bit basic, something to pick up when they're a good deal but not necessarily something to seek out just for the color.
