Would these be any good in the rain? I doubt they are but I figured I would ask.

Im looking for a set of rain track tires in 225/45/17 so that would be great if they are good in the rain. Most likely I will end up getting some summer tires in that size that are good in the rain.

 

^^ Well they have tread so they would be better in the rain than a "slick" but not as good as a real "rain" tire. I think they would be fine for a wet track or wet autoX as long as there was no standing water. Heavy rain and standing water would need a real "rain" tire. On the plus side, once the tread is worn down you can run them as dry tires.

 

Damn nice find!! Heh those are what my tires turned into. I cant wait to give them a good run on the streets. Going from bald..literally pilot sport a/s these things should rock. I got Hankook RS2 Z212's
