I took the Stealth to the car wash and after I was done pulling out of the parking lot not even getting on it maybe 1/4 throttle or less the car gets sideways and I'm going down the street this way probably 12 mph. It felt really weird and took me a couple seconds to realize what was going on even though I automatically started correcting the wheel. I'm used to powering through a corner with heavy throttle and the back end kicked out but not this. Lol. Damn all season tires. I guess they don't like the water. I have some high performance summer tires in the basement just need to get a different set of 18s for them.
