While driving on wet roads, the car hydroplaned several times. This is not the first incident of this - it is a common occurrence with these tires. I barely escaped an accident in December, 2003, after hydroplaning. I have driven for 22 years in the pacific nw and never have I been so scared about driving in the rain as I am with these tires.

2003 Hyundai Elantra makes loud noise and thumping sound from front tires when driving at highway speeds. I have seen many other complaints of the same problem on the internet, (msn autos).
