NTO5's in the rain. I don't really have a choice until I find out if I got this job today (another interview with a developer that sounds promising).. When/if I get the job I'll be looking at a 99 Blazer..
ANyway.. I have driven my Z28 with the NTO5's before in the rain around town and it was no big deal. They're actually NOT bad.. Surprisingly. It will break loose if you try, but under "normal" driving I didn't have a problem.
BUT....... Am I justified for not wanting to take it on the HW? There's no tread to carry the water away from the center of the tire and I am worried about hydroplaning.
Again, I don't have a choice.. I have places I need to go and this is my only vehicle at the moment.
