1. yes, stock tyres is a problem. Change to better donuts for the safety of everyone. Most tyre shops do trade in of old tyres for new ones. If anyone planning to change audio system, etc, Priortise to have tyres change first.
2. Alza has heavy rear. Next change to harder rear absorbers when it is due.
3. aero dynamic... not so as Alza is not that high.
4. clearance, good enough as usual.
.... summary is that stock tyres sucks. with these few weeks heavy rains, better tyres works much better.
Dont drive 120kph during heavy rain. I drive max 80kph on hiways when heavy rains due to visibility and unforeseen deep water patches.
You know some cars in fast lane just emergency brake when saw even small patch water.

anyone notice stock alza if go beyond 60km/h during heavy rain, it is most probably going to skid.
what's the issue there ???
1. due to stock tyre 185/55/15 silverstone M5 lousy?
2. due to car weight very light ?
3. due to aerodynamic issue compared to sedan?
4. floor clearance height higher than sedan?
please advise, really worry about alza owner since recently afternoon heavy rain.
my previous car going at 120km/h during heavy rain, no problems at all, no skid nothing.
water pond sure die la

1. It has been discussed throughout the entire thread and in fact the previous thread... M5 sucks, and a danger all Alza owners and other road users... Don't save up for the sake of saving money, spend it to change to better donuts...
2. Alza has a heavy ass...
3. No comment...
4. Probably...
And may I add the following...
5. The absence of VSA/VSC/ESP/ESC is one of the reasons I ditched my Alza...
6. Who in the right mind would speed 120kph during heavy rain even with stability control...?
Good luck...
