Tires pressures are checked routinely (at least weekly). I try to keep them at 35 psi for daily driving. The performance was ok in the rain. It was only when water started collecting on the roads that they got scary; standing water on the lane striping made changing lanes pretty gnarly at times. That kind of rain is not a common occurrence here, so I can't make too big of a deal out of the performance. Plus, their grip in the dry is amazing
