Consumer Description
DURING ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS (WINTER ICE AND SNOW, COLD TEMPS) MY WHEELS HAD ICE FREEZE IN THEM CREATING AN IMPOSSIBLE STEERING SITUATION. THE DESIGN OF THESE WHEELS ALLOWS THEM TO HOLD ABOUT AN INCH OF WATER ABOUT 3 INCHES IN LENGTH, WHEN THIS FREEZES THE RESULT IS AN OUT OF BALANCE WHEEL, ( IN THIS CASE 4 OUT OF BALANCE WHEELS) MAKING THEM WOBBLE (VIBRATE) UNCONTROLLABLY ON ICY ROADS. THIS CAUSED ME TO EXPERIENCE A TERRIFYING DRIVE FOR THE 17 MILES TO TOWN. I BELIEVE THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVER. *JB
