[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 415735, member: 4527"] Tyre grip in wet require exactly the opposite of dry. You need more surface contact for dry to improve grip but every square cm of surface contact gives u more lift when your surface is covered with water. The wider and botak tyres in the wet is just recipe for disaster while the same will be so sweet to drive on dry road. I always throw my car around u-turns in the wet, low speed, to have a feel of what's losing traction feels like. U need to be familiar with the feel so to detect it and correct it before its too late. Secondary oversteer is more deadly! [/QUOTE]
