In other places of the magical world they spell tires like that.. I'm not trying to be funny.[:@][&:]

wide tires in rain and snow will be worse because they cover more surface area and have to displace more water/snow and flacilitate hydroplane a lot quicker

It's all in the tires, I've driven my Cobra in plenty of rain and even in snow one year and with the right tires it's cake.

Mine is crappy in the rain too. I have good tires. For some reason it wants to slide and when I take off it wants to spin. It dosen't matter how easy I am on it.

Get a beater, love the beater, and beat on the beater. Let the Mustang live in the warm weather.

You need to define "**** in the rain".

Hydroplaning is directly related to lack of tread depth or in the case of a performance tire, tread design.

You claim to have 185 tires and are hydroplaning. They are worn.

Another problem is aged tires. They can even be skinny rain tires but when they get old, like 7-10 years old, the compound dries out and they have no adhesion in wet.
