Don,
Before you buy the Michelin Redlines I strongly recommend you test drive
someone's car that has modern tires, with or without the red line. The
Michelin redlines are very poor tires and take away from the handling
and comfort potential of our cars.

I don't recall yours being any brighter red than any of the others I 
have seen. Could be you are correct, they are all bright when new, and 
mine are 20 years old -- and maybe a little dirty. :-)
