OHMYGOD.

Also holy shit Wichita gets sketchy in the rain. I saw some truly terrifying stuff go down on the commute home.

What tires did you get? I think everywhere gets sketchy in the rain. Northern Californians always forget the physics of reduced friction coefficients when it gets damp here and all hell brakes loose. My normally 1 hour commute then turns into 2.5+ every time....

Fronts are goodyear all-weather sport tires, rear are... some brand I never heard of but have forgot. They're summer sport tires.

Directional treads are sexy.

That they are, I love geeking out over tires. I used to have Pilot Exalto A/Ss which were amazing but now have the Sport A/S 3s and those are even better and aren't even directional. I had my doubts at first that non could be better than directional but OMG. I have no idea how but I like to think its Michelin's racing program lol (the PR says there is truth to that, who am I to argue).
