After an incident where the rear wheel hydro planned and we spun out leaving the freeway, we fitted a Pirelli that was highly rated for not hydro planning.
I had to brake downhill from, er, spirited motoring speed when I rounded a bend to find a pony and cart plodding in my lane. Rear ~locked, made a horrible squeal (woke the cart driver), but tracked straight. I wouldnt skimp on the rear tyre quality...
