I feel a better throttle response in the rain and also in cooler weather. :-)

Yeah, my rims are pretty big. lol When I bought my stang, it came with the 20" Cobra R rims. They kinda grew on me after awhile.

Also I haven't personally noticed any change in power, but I suppose it is possible!

humidity will make the car feel sluggish, you want cooler, less humid temps. i love driving my car in the early AM. the blower likes it too.......untill it heat soaks lol.

Actually my car is the opposite! It rides great in the rain with high humidity and I am not sure why??!! However, when it is in the high 90's (no rain), my car will ride sluggish. I enjoy the fall season in GA, cooler weather and cruising with the windows down.

Some people like the wagon wheels for wagon look. You know what I mean?
