Re: Texas Drivers Uphold the Tradition

I was in a BMW. we also had 2 different sets of tires on the front and rear. The fronts were Toyos and gripped well in the rain. The Hankooks were on the back and were terrible. Across the bay from us was another BMW that ran Dunlop tires they had no Issues with grip. Yes they were slower but not crawling like I felt we were because of the back end sliding out.
