I notice with my car at 50 psi in the rain while 'speeding' the front tires start to plow a bit on hard corners / extreme winding roads, that traction loss starts at 50mph while driving in a posted 30mph zone. The rear has not started to loose traction in the rain on me yet though .. and that's in years of driving it at 50 psi
