Do the Stock Turenzas suck that bad?

I've noticed now (my car has about 5800 miles on it) that my slip light seems to be turning on alot more lately when taking a right turn on an intersection at 30-40mph. I don't recall this being a problem before, but it seems to be occuring much more frequently. Mind you, this is without a drop of water on the road too.

Tires change a lot as the rubber hardens.........6,000 mile tires are not brand new.
It only gets worse as tires reach mid life. Tread depth is not necessarily the indicator of a tires life especially in warmish climates. Worse in Arizona/Florida.

I have those tires, my car is now at 13k, no problems here. Right turn at 30-40 mph is what your problem is, not the tires!

I noticed going to my mom's place that I took that turn at 15-20 and my slip light turned on. Granted, I'm close to my rotation @ 7500.. but still

Okay, 15-20 sounds better, LOL! I bet it's not your tires at all, I would bet there is an issue with your slip light or the system, I have never had my slip light come, other than when you first start the car!

Has that been a common issue? I don't think I'm taking the turn too fast or anything and it will turn on.. interestingly.. a left turn it doesn't do it..

I've had it on wet roads, but that is to be expected, especially when the road is only partially wet.

Oh, I don't know if it has been or not, but remember a right turn is usually a lot sharper that a left, since you do have to go into the first lane, LOL, but at 30-40 mph, you may be hitting the curb on the opposite side of the road, just kidding!
