Default Pedals on MY06

Don't they suck when your shoes are wet, I've already had a couple of slips in different occasions, especially after a car wash.

What are you guys doing to take care of this, rain season is coming up.

I know that mugen used to make a sand paper feel for pedals before, looks like it should work.

Don't you have rubber nubs on your pedals? You might want to get new shoes...

I have the rubber nubs on mine and it still slips. i try to wipe most the water off on the carpet and then turn the heater to my feet so it'll evaporate the moisture. LOL.

Wet shoes make it pretty hard to drive initially.

I have that problem too. The rubber nubs don't really work.

Yeah I find the pedals are really slippery when wet too... Way more so than any other car I've driven. I'd get some aftermarket pedals if I didn't like the look of these so much..

I notice that shoes make a huge difference.

My dressier shoes (which I rarely use) slip all over the place. My Pumas on the other hand have no problem at all. I live in Seattle so I have wet feet all the time
