OP, narrower tires are better in rain and snow. The only time wider helps is on dry pavement. You're spreading the weight of the car over a larger contact patch, resulting in less weight pressing the tire down per square inch of contact patch. And don't worry about keeping up with anyone in inclement weather. Who cares if you get passed by somebody when it's raining like hell?
