Scared Sh*tless Fishtailing

[PurpleSh4rk]

have u taken ur car in for an alignment recently?
this happened to my mom on a freeway bridge goin 65 on a rainy day and it was on a turn also . Wen never changed our tires we jus simply took it to get an alignment and we never had this problem again

Not recently. The car has had pretty serious alignment problems in the past that voided the warranty of all the tires ever put on it. The best idea would probably be to get new wheels and tires and then install a camber kit. I was planning on getting 18" with 225/40-18 tires with FK452 tires. Need the money first

I have an R32 Skyline (RWD FTW!!)... it has the fishtail effect quite often, sometimes does it when you least expect it to!!
I'd start with the Tires, and then move onto suspension if it doesnt completely rectify your problem

Yeah. That surprises me that you get a fishtail effect frequently. I can't imagine if your R32 had been a front wheel drive. You'd be swimming on the streets

but you should jump up on a fresh new set of falken 912's i never slid in rain, unless i intended too

How many miles have you put on those tires?

 

[GlassJAw]

how many miles on the car??
Could there be worn bushes in the suspension components causing the bad tire wear??

Around 135K. I was going to replace the RSB with a 24mm Progress. Should I replace the front bushings too?

Do you consider them worn if I find cracks and such in them?

 

[GlassJAw]

Sounds like the rubber has perished if they're cracked.

are you lowered?....you could be too low for the stock shocks to dampen correctly or be hitting the bump stops...
