Btw, you can just ignore me, there is no rule telling me you have to give me warning.
never said that i was blaming "everyone else in the world", just that i got cut off and swerved...

you try an evasive maneuver two days after you go from street tires to winter tires when there is cold weather, moisture, and black ice...

the main difference is my tires... my summer tires are 205/40/17 and my winters are 175/65/14... that distinctly changes the handling of the car and takes a couple days to get used to

i totalled my AW11 on Thorpe Rd between the two tunnels right before 195 back in the day, after making a tire switch.. in combination with someone cutting the blind corner in her SUV.. off throttle oversteer is a bitch.

getting used to new tires sucks :( unless they're R comps.

Hello, Katthy and welcome to the forum.

Yes it is part of driving but it hurts just the same to see your beloved vehicle completely messed up.

By the way, we don't allow unauthorized advertising in the forum.
