I had Tigerpaw Uniroyal whatever tires that came with the miata, they were great in the dry. In the wet it felt worse than my current bald tires. Almost drifted into a curb once

If it was at all possible, I'd ban the import of these stupid off brand tires and VI everyone who had them.

I saw a tire called GOODRIDE that somehow had water get underneath the tread pattern RUSTING out the metal belt in the tire, causing the entire tread to chunk off with 90% remaining on them.

I'm not gonna lie, I was in the market for some cheap tires for the CRV. Looked at a brand called Accelera, they offered a Continental DW replica tire. At $220 shipped to Blaine for a set I couldn't turn down the offer. I figured if it were shit then I'll throw these away.

Drove through the rain from December till now, not a single complaint, and it didn't hydroplane like some other tires I've had, R1R, KDW2, Exclaim UHP, Gforce Sport comp 2 and Fk452 to name a few. Mind you I don't base all of my performance off of hydroplaning or not, but it definitely didn't feel as bad as some of those tires I've listed going through huge puddles at highway speeds

Who needs grip anyways?

In the rain, just kick the tail out every single turn. Cheapest way to turn your rwd car into a full out drift car!

I had 0 grip tires on my miata for a full year and I looked forward to driving it every time it rained, even though it was raining inside the car too lol

Ling Long tires :heckno:

I drove on them for about 2 years. In the dry they weren't BAD but slightest hint of rain and :fuckthatshit:

When one of them went flat, it was caused by cracked sidewall it so I replaced all four. When I yanked off the other 3 wheels the sidewalls were also starting to crack :heckno: :heckno: :heckno:

A 4/32" Bridgestone Turanaza had more grip dry&wet, rode better and had less road noise than Ling Longs with like 7-8/32" :fuckthatshit: Never again :heckno:
