Try asking over on the Tire/Wheel board.

Pretty much all of the '05 Michelins have grey tread.

Fast Freddie responded the same day with the same answer I gave here.

I tend to ignore tire color requests as there is no functional reason for the color. Looking for a tan/brown skinwall for an "older" restored bike excepted.

Yeah I just want my new build bike to be perfect before the first ride, that includes "prettyness".....

The Bontrager Revolt Super X (non-Tubeless) that I got from CBO have gray sidewalls....fwiw.

hmmm...color seems pretty important to you there shigg! not sure you'd be able to function with a bland colored bike!

Yes, I love COLOR. But not at the expense of FUNCTION. Many components give you a color choice (or you can change the color). Most tires do not give you a choice.

The discontinued ones.

Except for the fact that they pinch-super easy compared to other brands and have a suspect bead....they're great....

NO problems with em yet

I'd like a tire with a color that makes me go faster. Much like how I know decals on my bike make me go faster.
