I've hydroplaned on the stock potenzas going 45 as well.. and that was with less than 1000 miles on them. the 050's ARE dangerous in the rain.

+1 Was in the rain and felt the car becoming unstable and heavily hydroplaning. Tires are only a few thousand on them. The tires are 100% dangerous in rain.
