Yes, someone probably wrote that. After four or five sets of them
I still haven't found them any more unpredictable in the rain
than others and they're better than some I've tried (like I
personally didn't like the feel of the AV33/34 radials on wet).

Which Avons does the list prefer. AM24s or AV33/34
I ride in the rain all of the time.

I'm gonna hear it on this one but...
One of the things I like the most about my Jeep and hate the most about
other's SUV's is the height. Yes, it's nice to be able to see 4 cars ahead
but if any of you have ever done any avoidance drills (hard left, hard
right, hard left again) you know how tippy they are. Last time I saw this
was a Grand Cherokee just like mine in Atlanta on I85. It rolled 7 times.
VBTH (very bad things happen) Most folks don't realize that the first left,
right is ok but after that you have a wave effect with the high center of
gravity and the long travel suspension that just about throws you upside
down. You're better off hitting what you're trying to avoid or taking the
ditch.
Geeze, I'm full it today... Just ignore me if I offend. I'll be better
tomorrow.
