I have used the lionhearts, my experience was they have poor grip, not scary no grip but in the rain on a corner my @ss was waggling more than a few times, I do tend to drive like a mad man so I suppose that has to be a weighing factor compared to a normal driver.
Keep in mind, the s10 is a 373k mile 4 cylinder so it's not exactly what id consider a power house...lol

Traction in the rain has been fine, as far is hydroplaning and what not. 10/10, will buy again when these wear out.

I have a bagged gmc sonoma, I had a set of nitto tires on there, it hydroplaned so bad in the rain it was crazy. I switched to some chinese tires, similar to lionhart, i can run 80 and let off the wheel and it never pulls or acts funny. truck is on a low pro tire. I currently have chinese sailun brand tires on my tahoe, and they outperformed kumho and bridgestone potenza tires in the same size. Crazy how that works. LOL

Just saw a i370 pickup, look that up, had to do a double take
Interesting. I did look it up, now I see why I’ve never heard of it. It WAS a Chevy Colorado just with an Isuzu badge.

Quote:
The i-Series was, as you may have guessed, a first-generation Chevy Colorado or GMC Canyon that was rebadged as an Isuzu — and I truly mean "rebadged," as virtually nothing changed from the Chevy and GMC versions to create the Isuzu, save for the badges. The interesting thing was the naming: While Chevy and GMC used cool names evocative of adventure travel, Isuzu went with the far-more-industrial "i-Series," resulting in trucks named after the engine size: i-280 on models with the 2.8-liter 4-cylinder (later changed to i-290 when the engine changed to a 2.9-liter) and i-350 on models with the larger 3.5-liter 5-cylinder, which later became the i-370 when that engine increased in size.

Should have built an i-420. The 4.2 is a torquey lil guy.

Lionhearts are what these cheap wheel shops use for 24 and 26 wheel and tire packages

I saw it and I was like wth? looks like a chevy....just said i370 no Isuzu badge anywhere that I could see anyway, I knew some of the Isuzu have the chevy 6 cylinder in them but didn't know they rebadged a whole truck.
