Pedals that don't squeak with wet shoes?

I couldn't care less about the raciness / looks of steel or aluminum pedals. But I really hate how the OEM rubber clutch pedal (6MT) squeaks when my shoes are wet. It rains every other day here, so my shoes are often wet. Do metal pedals take the squeak away? Does anyone have any experience with a particular make of pedals that helped for this? Also, it only really matters for the clutch pedal... Does anyone know who might sell just the clutch pedal and not an entire set? I don't care about the brake or gas pedal.

i have the metal pedals and they kind of squeak but not as bad as the rubber ones do. how slippery they are is more of an issue when you have the metal ones

Oh shit. I meant to say grip tape. From skateboards. It's basically sandpaper with an adhesive backing.




Please don't start sanding your pedal.
