Yes, the stock tires with or without the Sport package handle great in rain. I've not had one problem, and I've even gone WOT to see if they'd slip while I was in 1st and 2nd. No slip at all. The VDC didn't even bother turning on. It was pretty heavy rain as well. However, they are summer tires, meant for roads that aren't frozen, so while I will garage my car in the winter, I would imagine it wouldn't make a significant difference unless you were on ice. Or if you were in a foot of snow.
