Just got my 1st mustang the other week. I drove it last Friday while it rained and I lost control for a second. Is it my tires or is this normal for a mustang?

 

its normal for any car if you have:

1-worn tires.
2-driving to fast.
3-have garbage tires.
4-driving like an idiot.

 

Maybe it's the way you drive?



















Just joking.


Welcome to the board. Have fun with your Stang.

 

v8 stangs will notice this problem being native. short wheelbase and a lot of tq. makes for interesting times. Welcome to grunt.

There are few solutions and even fewer treatments other than a proper wet weather tire and avoiding overly stiff spring rates. Drive it careful in the rain...it's not a F1 car.

 

I'm going to order wheels & tires from americanmuscle.com. Is this site OK? Please reply.

 

AM best of the best!

 

yup go for it.. you will be a happy customer

 

Thats where I got mine from! [IMG][/IMG]

 

thanks

 

You just need to treat the rain like you would snow...(assuming you've driven in snow before). You just can't expect to accelerate very hard, and you'll be fine.
