Traction in Wet Weather... 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be Brian on  Tue Nov 7 16:42 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I have an 86 760 Turbo 4-door sedan. Just today on my way home I needed to make a U-Turn... and its raining (of course) and after completing my U-Turn I start to fishtail... luckily I was able to recover fairly easily... But I don't like it when my tires spin from a start or when I feel like my back end is going somewhere when I'm making a turn. This ONLY happens when it rains here. I have General brand tires on my car that have a M&S rating... don't have the model of the tires handy but I know they aren't necessarily BAD tires.... they obviously aren't pirreli's or anything. What can I do that will help A LOT with traction in wet weather... is it just me or are volvo's known for this? And what do I do to fix it?

Thanks,

Brian
