Default Re: Why Chrysler should make a new Crossfire.

Second, the larger, lower-profile tires give the Crossfire more traction than the SLK. (High-performance Z-rated Michelin Pilot Sport tires are standard, 18 inches in front and 19 inches in the rear.) Indeed, Car and Driver magazine said the Crossfire clung to the asphalt on a skid pad better than the hot Nissan 350Z."
Boss most came with the god awful Conti's. I know cause I was there from the get go. It really is laughable how much you think the crossfire is a mopar car. It's as close to being a mopar as a Cadillac is to being a Ferrari.
