i love them in the dry (not as much as the advans) but man do i get squirelly in the rain. Anyone else hate driving in the rain on these things? The advans stuck no matter what. I just hate paying 1300 for Neovas in 18" trim.

 

guess u shoulda done ur homework first

 

I really don't have a problem with mine in the rain crusin around town. Now goin 80 on the highway and hitting some standing water though is another story.

 

You meant they are great in the rain? My Advans with 40% thread left are scary in that element. I'm getting all-seasons.

 

yeah i hydroplane slightly even at lower speeds. I drive pretty slow in the rain, especially when we get the bucketfuls down here. I try not to ever drive in the rain but it's so unpredictable here.

 

I don't know, it was just really hard to break traction with them regardless of how heavy the rain was.

 

wtf double post 15mins later

 

I just put on some rt-615s. I live in florida, the rainfall capital of the USA. I havent noticed them to be wurse in the rain. I guess I just slow down.

 

You just need to slow drive slower/smoother ... the RT-615 treads aren't exactly rain friendly ... Are yours really worn down? I have really worn out RT-615 and haven't had a problem driving in the rain ...

 

u have an 06... just turn the ACD to 'gravel' mode and will feel alil more stable

 

I've never really had a problem with the RT-615's in the rain (live in seattle), and they were managable one time I got caught in the snow. Car control is your friend.

 

I still love these tires, being in arizona we hardly get rain, so we need good dry tires....

 

Who would have thought....200 tread wear SUMMER tires...not doing well in the rain

 

if u search a thread i made for a kumho mx vs falken rt 615 i give my opinion on both...


i will stick witht eh mx's theyre amazing in the wet almost as good as the falken/advan in the dry... unless ur an amazing driver i doubt you'll notice the difference...

Cheers!

 

my 615s were decent in the rain until they go down to about 40% tread left. I've driven on s03, and PS2 and both of those are amazing in the rain. the stock advans were ok in the rain, not better then the 615s really.
