We have a 2001 9-5 Aero, and live in the Seattle area. I have found no complaints with the stock tires in the rain. Note that the stock tires are summer-only tires, and are not meant *at all* for any type of wintery driving. When the stock tires go, I'm planning on replacing them with all-seasons, so that when it snows here (not very often, though it does happen), I don't have to take my wife's car. lobolobo99nopsamail.com (James McNiff) wrote in message news:<2fcaad17.0203032349.38050b77nopsaming.google.com>... > I am thinking of buying a 2002 95 Aero and am wondering what people's > experience has been running the car in the rain.
