Tires for rain

Any all season tire should work fine in the rain. If you're hydroplaning, then you need to carefully check your rear tire wear -- especially the inside tread. If the tread depth is good, then you need to slow down.

With the stock negative camber and Swift lowering springs, my Z used to eat up rear tires on the inside and I couldn't see the tread very well. Had a lot of 'planing issues, now I've installed a rear camber kit and gotten the camber corrected quite a bit, rears wear much more evenly and wet traction IS significantly improved.
