Seriously - the wheels are just too dam wide for water on the road... and for all those of you getting even wider wheels- good luck hahah... but honestly - just drive SUPER safe and make no sudden movements w/ the gas / wheel and you will be fine
I believe wider wheels does not equate to more grip. I reduced the performance and handling of my previous car by changing to wider and larger diameter wheels.
