Brand new Goodyear rs-a, 205-55-16 have no traction at all in wet conditions my car (Acura Cl 1999) is all over the road I almost hit a guardrail due to lack of traction. These tires have horrible reviews now that I checked on www.tirerackcom and other tire sites for these reasons; no traction. If I knew that I would never had let them be installed on my car. The point is that Goodyear is selling dangerous and faulty tires and should be held accountable for the lack of quality. The safety issue is the main concern here; if you are driving and it rains and the car has zero traction its a major issue. Something has to be done to recall these tires and refund our money and also to take them off the road before someone is hurt or killed while driving.

The contact owns a 1999 Acura 3.0cl. The vehicle has goodride model SP06 tires (na), which were purchased at tire discounter. The contact noticed online the type of tire that the vehicle required. He went to the dealer and purchased the tires. When he arrived home, he noticed that the rating was different than the set he saw online. The contact called the dealer regarding the mix-up with the tires. The general manager stated that the grade was changed by the manufacturer, but the tires were the same. The contact feels that the tires are not the same because the vehicle performs differently and is concerned that a crash could occur. The tire size and dot number were unknown. The failure mileage was 112,252. Updated 07/23/09
