So help me, that got a chuckle. Have to remember that the next time I write an article on tires...
Skinny tires absolutely rock in the pouring rain. Did a slalom test in a few factory pick-ups, and the variant on the skinniest tires did pretty well, despite being shod in long-wearing ungrippy van meats... while higher end variants wearing wider "HT" tires took more effort to navigate the wet course. And we didn't even have enough water to form standing puddles. the higher pressure on the contact patches was enough to make the difference.
