How does your Celica handle in the rain . Today I didn't floor it but put a little gas and made my front wheels spin /: other than that the car drives smoothly any of you have this problem ?

I've never had spin out in the rain, although Cali is in a drought right now frown.gif

Are your tires over inflated? And how's the tread on them.

If you can't handle an anemic FWD car in the rain, turn in your license. tongue.gif

If your tires are old and/or low on tread it'll cause problems in wet conditions.

This is much more dependent on your tires, than the car, I would think.

Yeah, aside from inflation problems its all about the quality of your tires, not just the brand but also how worn out they are. And the condition of your struts will help your stability too.
Also if it hasn't rained in a long time it will draw all the oil up to the surface the first time it finally does rain and it will be super slick for a little while.
