Ahh remind me of my nitto nt555.... i was caught in a light mist with these once. And by light mist, i mean it was as if someone took a spray bottle and just spray the black top.
Anyways tires were new, road slightly wet, was doing a left turn, goung maybe 10-15mph, the minute i turn the wheel, the car went SIDE WAYS. Im talking full side ways where i look to my left and made eye contact with the driver behind me.
Moral of the story, doesnt matter if tires are old or new, some just arent meant for rain. I can only imagine what wouldve happened if my tires were as old as the op. RIP me.

So I'm driving my base 2004 350z with no tcs or vdc in the rain on i10. Not very heavy rain, just wet roads, driving 50 in 6th gear. My tires aren't the best right now, probably have less than 1/8th of an inch tread on the rears. But I was driving 50 in 6th gear and I did a 720 spin on the highway from catching a groove in the road. How the **** does that even happen at 50 mph in 6th 2000 rpm???
