But as the years get on there compounds seem to go hard with age , then there wet grip gets scary in light cars . Not in my experience, Potenza G3s (who said they were $120 per corner? I've never seen 'em less than $180, especially for 15's) and RE711's have very weak sidewalls, I'd say that my biggest complaint with them is how much the sidewall squishes under hard cornering! Wet grip is a bit dicey as they get older. Bloody oath! I have potenza's on my stock rims and the compound has gone rock solid after leaving them in the shed for a year or so... I put them back on when my 17's were running low on tread. In the rain the compound was useless! That's wierd, I'm about to try some old tyres (like a year old or so) in a week or two so I guess I'll know then! It could be climate related as well, I'm not sure whereabouts you live but humidity or some other atmospheric condition could alter the lifetime of stored tyres? [Report message to a moderator]
