Factory OEM Michelin Primacy All Season Tires (tire size 215/55R17) on a front-wheel drive 2024 Hyundai Sonata SEL with the 2.5L gasoline engine. At around 4,000 it had issues momentary issues with keeping traction in the rain when starting to accelerate after being stopped before regaining traction. Sometimes the traction control light would on the dash during the momentary loss of traction. Problem worsened over time and the tires are now very worn at 34,000 miles. At one point, I almost lost control of the car and almost crashed when slowing down after the steering wheel started moving to the left itself because of one of the front tires. Tires were properly maintained and rotated at scheduled maintenance intervals.
