Message	all depends on the tires you're running and the road surface you're driving on... I had some balding AVS Intermediates and I was hydroplaining at 55mph+ pretty bad... went around a slow left hander on the highway and changed lanes to the right without my desire to do so. Also slid off the road backwards once on an onramp during a starting shower... =( not fun. Definitely DON'T boost in the rain. Hell, even my ghetto '84 200SX Turbo hatchback breaks its 225/50's loose in the rain... =( one of them anyway (damn open diff, lol).
