I've spun out a few times on Summers and would rather be overly cautious after doing a 180 in traffic last Fall.

I love my extreme contacts. Awesome wet handling. I have both the summer and the A/S version. Did pretty good when I got stuck in one of the small storms before the big one. (around new years maybe?) It was still a scary drive but I got there safe.

I like how those younger guys are treating their Z like they're VW's and own rims that are worth more than their cars.
