You either got too much psi in the tires or the wrong crappy tires. Thats the reason I have a hard on for yokohoma tires. I dont trigger any of the driver assisters on my honda when driving in rainy weather. No trac control, skid or abs. I am velcroed to the road.

Yeah the upgrade too 13" tires and steelies is a huge step up from 12" 155 the car handles better on cornering and doesnt feel like the tire is kicking under!!!! And more traction in rain i feel safer now no skidding all over |

Your first sentence is spot on, but don't attribute it to brand. Yokahama does sell some fantastic tires. They'll also gladly sell you some hard as a rock pieces of crap. You get to choose, UTQG treadwear # is a good indicator, anything over 500 is going to provide no traction, anything under 200 is going to wear out in a year. |
