    Default You know it's bad when...

    You are driving down a road with little water and all you can feel is the rear end swaying back and forth. I guess it's time for those new rear tires!

    That feeling is fine until you have to make a turn. Then it gets interesting.

    Know what's even better?

    When you're running all dry season Nitto's, and your car hydroplanes in any amount of visible water.

    It doesn't matter if you have new or old tires on the car. Either way your still gonna end up letting the back end step out and slide into a curb!

    KDW's FTL, to noisy for an expensive tire. Falken Ziex's FTW, quiet, long lasting, sticky and cheap. Im gonna be getting some new rubber next week, Falken Azenis.
