How does hydroplane without doing stupid speeds ? Please don't say tires either. Cause no way Michelin wouldn't release tires to the general public without a decent wet rating.

This car is probably too much for your current driving skills.

After this weeks storms and heavy rain, PS4S's are excellent in the rain! However, being this guy is 17 it probably has the cheapest tires that are included with the wheels.

I was doing 35 on a wet road with 2 month old blizzaks. Hit the brakes due to a truck in front of me suddenly stopping. Car just full on slid. Not even a sound of them screeching. I may as well have been on ice.

The trucks driver said he was watching me in his side mirror, and even told the cop that I wasn't speeding, and could see me trying to stop.

Sue for inferior tires that would even activate the ABS. 🤣

First of all, if you don't claim all of the upgrades then the insurance won't pay for them. In that case, they don't care what kind of radio is in the car, as long as there is a radio in the car. Ditto suspension, etc.

Second...

I just read on your other thread you're only 17.

That's harsh. Funny, but harsh.

We were all 17 once.

Still, there is no excuse for hydroplaning. Either you were driving too fast for conditions, or the tires (whatever they were) were too worn to handle the water, and you should have replaced them a long time ago. You and that other guy, both.

But hey, 17. I get it. Not a lot of disposable income. Not sure what you're doing with a 2019 Mustang GT though, if you can't afford tires. LOL

Glad you weren't injured. That's the main thing. Best of luck.

Were the tires really old or worn or something? Just doesn't compute with how those tires have been for me lol
Nope, only 1-2 months. I didn't get it then and still don't. I've rocked blizzard for years. All I can think was there happened to be something slick on the road I didn't see.

Really my point though was just some times weird/unexpected shit DOES happen. There likely was another factor I never noticed, but to late to find it now.
