Speed
Car’s weight
Tire’s width
Tire’s tread depth
Tire’s performance

Our car is relatively light, but have wide foot print (wide tires). So “light” weight, less concentrated weight (wide tires). You just gotta slow down more.

Hydroplaning happens when the above factors combined to overwhelm the tire’s ability to evacuate/disburse the water between the tire and road surface. A puddle deep enough, wide tires, light weight, fast enough, it’ll happen, no matter what tires you use.

And a set of new AS3+ is already a top performer in all season category. You just gotta slow down more. Can’t escape physics.
