I was deadheading in Arkansas in the middle of Tropical Depression Gustav and I was slipping all over the place. Watch out if the roads are wet down there. I swear they spread slime on 'em and it's not too hard to buy a guardrail.

Yeah Gustav is really making things a mess here. It's 10:43 pm and rain just now slowin down. I'm leaving for El Dorado at 3 am, hope the slow up in the weather
holds. Drive safe KEN WORTH. -
I came out of the Petro in LR. And it was like running on patches of ice in some spots. Hit the gas...slip. And the wind was not helping with my empty. -
Funny...
I didn't have any problems. Maybe ya'll got too much armor all on your tires! -
I was empty and have super singles. I came across from the 161 to the 220 mm at about 55 mph. Sometimes slower, cuz the newbs were really skeered. And I ain't jumping out in front of a loaded truck...hammerin LOL
Of course, the 3 four wheelers that decided to go boating in the median didn't help matters either -

I've been runing SS off and on for about 4 years. I don't have many issues with them. Love em in the snow They like to break loose when you apply a liberal amount of torque to the drive line, while on ice or rain slick roads though.
I think a groove/tread redesign is in order. Maybe we'll see it in the future.
