Dangerous, poor traction on wet pavement sumitomo tour plus ls-H when on a steep road in san francisco, my tires skidded rather than grab the road on a rainy day in the winter of 2016. This also happened during the winter of 2017. It is dangerous. I need to change the tires before selling my car to another person.

Matrix

  • 15,000 miles
2008 Toyota Matrix has premature tire wear in tires after only 15,000 miles. Toyota says this is normal and that I have to pay to replace the tires. The tires are not defective, it is the alignment in the car.
