The interesting thing I found about them, other than, like you said, the ease of which they clean up, is how well they ride. We all forget as we add 18s, 19s, 20s how much more rubber there is on smaller diameter wheel set-ups.

I took maybe two rides this Winter, and both times it was a remarkable difference from the low profile tires on the 18" Carrera wheels I've got on it most of the year. Its an odd tradeoff.
