Ok guys ya missed me ?
Ok Here what i have about my tires are spining on the road durning winter time season tires didn't not spining but spring and summer time i found out that oil on road will make your tires spining durning take off or pick up the speed.
now it make sence now i've always wonder why do they spin tires durning warm and hot weather ! were tires don't spin winter time on cold road ! i never heard of spin on road before , i guess it does !!
What do guys think? one more thing my co. woker said same thing as dealer told me last year !

Just don’t be gone so long!
Tire rubber hardens with age and will lose griping power.
It varies with the ‘rubber/plastic’ compound from batch
to batch, tread design to tread design, model to model
and manufacturer.
The Long-trails on my Frontier completely lost wet
weather traction at four years yet had tons of tread
left. It takes a lot of rain to wash the oil film off the
road.
My Long-trails had no grip on dry roads. My Frontier
would ‘burn rubber’ taking off from a stop and ‘burn
rubber’ making the first shift… And remember it is a
wimpy 3.3 automatic. A new set of tire solved all those
problems.
Another solve is to remove a spark plug wire… That should
stop you from spinning the rear tires!
BTW… I got my WB5ZCR Ham Ticket renewed til 2024!!!
