yeah, they aren't bad on like back road or city driving in the rain, but i got stuck on the highway in a downpour and couldn't go above 50 or I'd be hydroplaning. i also have 295s on all 4 corners so that doesn't help either lol

All good were in kph here so 50mph is 80kph, most our limits are 100 to 110 kph anyway.....but id hate for wife to wipe it out or something in the event of......im hoping to run a 285 up front and a 305 out back maybe firestone indys up front and continental extremes out back....
