I like the niken also. The EVO don't have any pizzaz. Mine are metal and have a polished dragon on a stipled back. They are not too slippery when wet due to the sharp edges of the raised dragon.

I am thinking along the same lines about the slipping issue. I think the raised edges are probably rough and that keeps your foot on in wet conditions because there are no rubber pieces as far as I can tell.I really like both of them for different reasons and I am incredibly torn between the two. I actually like the EVO ones slightly better because they have a simple design and from that design probably will not slip as much. The Niken are just cool looking plain and simple. But they might offer less traction and they are out of stock until early September. I guess I will pine a little longer.

They don't slip. I have the dragon ones from autozone that are all metal and they don't slip at all. Might depend on the shoes as well, though.

i like the first ones. They look more professional and "racing inspired". The second ones look cool, yea, but they are too crowded and have too much going on for simple pedal covers if you catch my drift.One thing I've allways wondered about pedal covers, most of them extend farther below the stock pedals, when you floor the gas pedal, wouldn't the bottom of the cover prevent the accerator from full throttle by touching the floor panel/carpet before being fully open?

Damronjr, I looked at your cardomain and I have the same pedals. They were a present from my bro. They only slip with my sandals due to a smooth sole. I still like the Niken.

Looks like you are missing a pedal to me.
