I'm thinking about buying a set of 275 or 285 width rear tires for my daily driver 1990 GT, but the car sees a lot of rainy weather driving and I don't want to have to swap tires once winter starts. Are wide rear tires like that going to reduce my traction in wet weather / increase hydroplaning?
I'm not going to run drag radials or anything like that; just some good high performance all seasons like Nitto 555's, BFG g-Force Sports or Falken 452's... previously I ran 225 width g-Force Sports and they were fine in the rain...
The fronts are going to be 245's on 9" wheels BTW and either 9" or 10.5" wheels in the back....
Thanks for any input...
