hi and merry christmas to all . just wanted to ask you darkside guys about wet road cornering . i have recently put a falken 452 on and noticed that hard cornering in the dry i can power slide ... that is so much fun , but a wet road has me concerned . maybe i need a softer compound tyre ? any advice appreciated

regards millsy
 

Don't power slide when its wet.
 
Can't answer for the Falcon tire,
but my Riken Raptor takes to water like a duck.
No big deal on cornering, I slow down to a (relatively) safe speed,
but have no hesitation in corning wet or dry.
the only time I can think of when it lost it's grip, was once on sand,
and a motorcycle tire wouldn't have helped then either.
 
The only things that keep me from riding like I have testicles of titanium is the Metz front tire and bought sense.
