Need suggestions for good wet traction tires.Marc-OS 01-25-2002, 10:43 PM I bought my car about a month ago, and it came with a set of Toyo Proxes FZ4's. These do pretty good on a dry day, but when you live in WA you don't see a whole lot of those. The problem is the traction when its raining (whether a sprinkle or pouring) is fairly "crappy". What would you guys recommend for a set of tires with good or even decent wet weather traction? SilverY2KCivic 01-26-2002, 01:21 AM Hands down, I'd say get a set of Bridgestone RE950's. I did a product test of them for Bridgestone last winter, and if they can FIRMLY hold an '01 BMW 325i sedan to the ground taking turns and curves at 60+ mph, then they would be a great tire for your car. :) And just some FYI on them, they hold AS GOOD 50% warn as they do brand new! :eek2: Dezoris 01-26-2002, 10:15 AM Those tires are wothless in any wet condition. I agree the best rounded street tires for rain are the Potenza 950, RE730, and S03 Pole position. brads94accord 01-27-2002, 12:45 AM my nankang ns-1 sports grip pretty good in the rain and dry. i love em. and they're cheap i paid 70 a piece for em.

I believe it safe to say my car handles better in the rain then many cars do in the dry. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
