I'm not sure if I've studied properly or not. I've been lurking here for a while and I'm not getting any closer to an answer for what I need.
I drive an ECHO on a 75 mile round trip to work over the costal mountains between Santa Cruz and San Jose, Ca. The car is light and has a high profile for it's weight. In our winter we get slight to heavy rains and winds. The current Potenzas I assume are factory as they have 45K on them, and they are getting down to 4/32. They aren't comfortable in the wet with wind.
Tire Rack stuff and searches here are not convincing; too many opinions and not enough meat.
Does anyone have a bit of help for me searching for the best wet weather tire for this light car in wet conditions?
I drive conservatively if that might help.
Best Regards,
John
