Nittos here. Supposedly the best drag radial rain tire. I figured, people who have trouble are just asshole drivers.
I drove the Cobra home like grandma's grandma on an especially rainy day. I mean, people beeping at me I was going so slow in the far right lane. 15 under plus. Going in a straight line isn't terrible, but hit a bump, or try to take a curve and ask a lot of that tire, good night. Doing 15mph in a 25mph around a relatively soft 90 degree right hand turn, I pushed the clutch in and let the throttle off well before the corner and still spun it three times and finally stopped facing the wrong way, lucky.
I have never driven the car in a day forecasted for more than 20% chance of rain or snow since. If you really want drag radials and have the money to throw down on them, you also have the money to throw down on spare rims.
