How does the tl s type handle in rain? I’m picking mine up Friday and probably going to be pretty wet. Thanks.. tires are good

You or the car?
Front wheel drive cars handle well in the rain. With good brakes and tires you should make it home in one peice. |

Should also add that alignment plays a big factor as well. Excessive toe and camber (really only an issue if lowered) can make it squirrely in wet weather. Been there before with other cars and it isn't fun.
My 05 TL with a decent set of A/S tires and a good alignment, mixed with my not being an idiot in wet weather driving style does just fine. |
Ok thanks for the information!! I just didn’t want to get on it and regret it. When I test drove it with her I babied it because I didn’t want to freak her out lol
|
What? How does any car "handle" when it rains?
|
Slippery when wet!
|
I actually think its a lot of fun to spin through 3rd gear. Makes my car seem fast :butthead:
|
That’s really what I was asking. 😂
|
You will be fine. Check the tires n drive normal. I intentionally have fun by turning off traction control and spinning being fwd it handles well in the rain. I wouldn’t try that with my mustang though
|
Rains a lot in the PNW. FWD/AWD are the way to go.
|
I totaled a mustang hydroplaned on interestate. Ok thanks for information

It’s raining here so I’m waiting for it to dry up and wash wax it. Thx man!! I noticed my window won’t roll down so I got to figure that out. It only has 59k on it

You got a Type-S with 59k miles? Now we must see pics.

A better response is, aspec was a dealer option and is OE quality....but it is not technically "stock". |
