    That's one thing I have never understood. For example you have say a BMW 335 4 door. The fronts and rears are different sizes. So when you rotate you can only rotate the fronts and rears. You are never getting the same wear since you're never switching backs and fronts. Always have to get new tires for the rears sooner than the fronts cause of the RWD. Anything to make a buck I guess.

    I can understand on a sportier car, but an everyday driver like the 335?

        Only thing you can do is flip sides. That's how they want you to rotate them.

              You know what, i forgot that. Sorry man. Fuck i am so retarded.

              Anyway what you can do is swap left and right, doubt it will do much but you never know.

              Also Bouncer, why the hell are you driving a Z in the rain? Thats just dumb, RWD with lots of HP in the rain = FAIL!

              even with TCS, its not good. Just be careful man. that car is delicate in the any condition except dry and sunny.

                      You retard :retard:

                      Never take that risk, its not safe. If the only car you have is a RWD, i don't blame you, but other than that you shouldn't go out and find trouble

                          Lol... It's ok to mess around though, only when no one else is there on the road. If you fuck up and crash, I rather take my own life rather than someone elses that had nothing to do with me.

                          It's just one of those things man, don't like to fuck around in the rain in snow.

                            dna, you can drive at normal speed like on normal roads just fine.

                            wouldnt want to be on a really wet highway going 80 though.

                              To a certain degree yes. If it had just started raining I would take it easy because rain and oil cause for bad traction. Other than that it's all about being cautious.

                              With a powerful car, such as the Z, even tapping the acclerator would get them tires spinning. That why you don't see corvettes on the road when it rains :retard:

                                you see any kind of car on the road when it rains. i saw a ferrari 430 the other day headed north on the turnpike and it was pouring out.

                                my tires spin on dry road so whats the difference. :D
