hi
hope you all had a nice xmas!
i had a nasty surprise on boxing day i was going home from my g/friends over took a focus then continued to go straight on at a roundabout as i exited it the back let go to the left i thought i'd caught it but then they gripped and span me the other way i ended up going onto the grass i hit the curb on the way as well more or less sideways. i was surprised my wheels were still intact although my tracking is out needed a new wheel bearing and a rear axle suspension arm.

was really surprised as wasn't even going that fast as it was a bit damp.

got eagle f1's on front newly fitted and yokos on rear.

anyone else experience the back coming round on them?

first time its happened to me and i've been driving for 7 yrs.

iv spun out a few times in the wet and it was mainly due to my rear brake compensator valve being seized that means the rear brakes lock up when driving and your rear end loses it in the wet. it could be that on your or it could be just bad luck!! its scary tho! lol
