Super rain tires

With the extreme rain from the past tropical storms I have put my Nitto Terra Grapplers to the test in heavy downpours. They are the best rain tire I have ever had under me. While other drivers are pulling to the side of the road I am running the limit with great confidence.

 

I do the same with my stock tires. Its the 4x4, active handling, and ABS that makes it great, not the tires. I punch it and pass people accelerating from 60-80 in tropical storms in 4H.

 

you drive 80mph in 4 wheel drive?

 

X2!!

 

You eat pieces of shit for breakfast...

haha, that comment reminded me of this.

but 80mph in 4H not smart

 

Yeah that ABS works great for the handling at 80 mph.

 

Yes, I do 80 in 4H... all the time in the rain. Works great. I do about 30-40 miles a day that way. And yes ABS does wonders when you have to brake and steer at the same time and go past threshold. It is great handling when ABS kicks in.

 

80 in 4H is plenty smart...

 

Are you guys really so dim you think you are going to break something doing only 80 in 4H in te rain? Jeez yall are some pansies.

 

Because Anti lock Brake sysytems really keep your vehicle from hydroplaning, !

 

No they dont keep it from hydroplaning. Then again my vehcile does not hydroplane nor is it prone to do it. Now my Corvette would hydroplane at 50-55 with wet roads, no rain, and no standing water.

 

Dude.. you dont own a Tacoma or a Vette.

4H 80 mph? Keep playing your Playstation.

 

LOL!!

All kidding aside, you need to slow your ass down before you hurt someone else on the road..you're no racecar driver.

 

I own a 2010 TRD DC SB 4x4 V6 Auto.

The Vette is sold. I drove it 100 as my regular, go everywhere, cruising speed, and hit at least 120 daily.

I have an Xbox 360 and not a Playstation 3.

80 mph is NOT that fast. We were in a 80-100mph high speed chase at work the other day, driving on the wrong side of the road, running red lights, etc... also not that fast. I would not go that fast in the rain in my work shop (Tahoe) It hydroplanes like crazy.

I still dont get why 4H is a big deal at 80 mph? Its more stable than 2H, you still have everything the same other than the throttle cutting out or the rear end wanting to come out. It does not make the vehicle handle worse and does not break anything. Sure I would not go faster in heavy rain than 80 and you have to pay attention but its not dangerous or anything.

80 mph is the speeed limit in parts of this state. Why is everyone making such a big deal over nothing?

 

yea well i hit 150 in my taco the other day...was the third time..so...i'm better

 

With a bull bar, can't forget that... Fixed it for ya.

 

hahahaha priceless!
