Riken Raptor H series
Hello all, My 2006 is fitted with Riken Raptor H tires.
I'm happy with them in the dry and with the wear so far, but...
I am totaly displeased with them in the wet and I mean any wet!
I get slippage like crazy and Hydroplaning!!! I recently was out in a heavy downpour. I was on the flat running about 65 approaching a slight uphill grade that I have taken many a time in my Ford E150 Van. As I began climbing the grade I lost grip and started loosing control. Had to back off to roughly 50 MPH were as most of the other cars and trucks began passing me.
Needles to say I won't be getting them again,
I am curious if any one else has them and there comments.
I won;t ask for suggestions on replacements as i can search till my hearts content and make a choice.
Thanks
MikeRuth
