matt_arosa16v Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 I gotta say my car felt a little dangerous 2day. I must have lost control (skidded) slightly 3 times going round corners. I wasn't carrying too much speed into the corners either. Mmmm... Any1 else find this?Details: Arosa 16v w/ 15s and standard Dunlops (195/45) and standard suspension (atm style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> ) Plus tyres haven't done many miles...

bossjohnc Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 New tyres need to be worn in! If they've done less than 100 miles, take it a bit easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulbin Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 wot it might have been, wen it is sunny the roads get hot, soft and sticky, and wen it rains straight after, alot of grease comes out of the roads. People take it easy wen it is wet but wen it drys the grease is still there for a bit, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGTI Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 some road surfaces get a bit slimey but could be the weight transfer as well - cos its not lowered itll lean more on corners and throw the weight across losing grip.......dammit whats the phrase, um...oh body roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 If it was wet, I'm throwing all the blame at the Dunlops. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_arosa16v Posted August 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 Yep I guess it's the Dunlops fault. Plus can't wait to get my suspension kit -mmm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
