wah lao eh.... now only u all discuss about tyres and grip
coz on saturday i drove up genting, it was sunny and dry... no problem (some more is uphill drive)
but on the downhill at 7pm, it rained, and my car skidded twice. Once was during a sharp and steep downhill corner, the rear just went off and my car went into slight oversteer. it was blardy unnerving because there were cars around me. Let go brake a bit, hit again... Lucky grip came back and didnt hit to the car on my right (was taking sharp left turn). Then, another time was another steep downhill slope, road was wet (raining ma) and due to fog, suddenly see speed bump at the end of that steep slope, stepped on brake and car lost traction again... slide all the over and over the bloody speedbump. grip came back after the bump *phew. After that 2 incidents, enough liao, the remaining of the downhill was done using 2nd gear

after the last police checkpoint, dry roads again, so here can speed up liao coz the corners are gentle and same for the slopes. But saw an over-turned trailer halfway (i think it lost control suring one of the turns) and reminded self not to get over-eager and take corners too fast

anyway, my stupid tyres are Continentals. When told my bro about it, he said he had bad experience in the wet with the same tyres on his Wira too. Both of us agreed that we will never use Continentals ever again (btw, same for SIME tyres, had it on an old Tiara, fair on dry, poor on wet)
CONTINENTALS??? speaking bout it, makes my blood boil.
my previous continental wasted me alot of time and money... air keep leaking on the sidewalls. no remedy, no cures. put silicone la.. sand paper la.. blablabla..
at last, change to silverstone, ns700. problem solve. good grip, low noise.
