What else that's ironic is you are running the exact same tire as I was that caused the whole mess (same size, brand...). By far the worst tire I have ever owned on any performance vehicle in terms of wet traction (the tires had maybe 1000 miles on them)...And yes I have owned other cars with 315+ sized tires.

I also recommend not carrying any passengers when you reach the mileage...
