Well that doesn't sound good. The information I found said the Tourance's were better wet road tires than the stock Trailwings, and I never had a problem with the stock tires loosing traction early in wet conditions, so I figured the Metzler's would be better.

I never do get really crazy on wet roads anyway, (you can't see the oil spots when the road's already wet) but I'll have to make myself a mental note to go a bit slower till I find there limits, thanks for the warning.

What did you think of them for dry conditions?

Kind of sounds like you had a lot of highway miles on them to get the rear squared off, how long did they last for you?
