Default Tires

Today my dad got some new cheap shitty all seasons for his '97 Odyssey and I was drivng it home and I go around a corner very slighty fast, so that passengers might not even notice, and they start to squeal. I was like :wtf:. I thought that it couldn't be this car, but it happened again. And I was accelerating from a stop with maybe 1/2 throttle and they squealed again. These tires really suck. I look at the treadwear and it is 620! These tires can cut diamonds. Isn't anything over 100 not even competetive for autocross? My parents don't care though, but I'd be nervous driving of something with such poor traction, they aren't even A temperature rated. My CRX has 300's and I consider them pretty shitty as far as traction goes. That's what you get for $65 a piece I guess. :exnbp:.

At least you won't have to buy another set of shitty tires for the next 70,000 miles. h:

what did you expect? they are new tires. even summer compound tires will make noise when they are brand new.

it's from the release compound they use at the factory.

check the air pressure and don't drive so fast if you know they are going to be so noisy. simple solution.
