First off (IMHO) you should be at least hesitant to roll on the throttle coming out of a turn if the roads are wet. Straight line riding in the pouring rain is fine; but it's the turns that will mess you up. You go from a 5 inch contact patch to like 2 inches................not good when it's wet out.
As for tires; you get what you pay for. I should be the LAST guy to give advice on what tires to buy as I've been riding on race scrubs for the last 4 months................
