I was finding that I was getting a twitchy rear end and the front was staying planted when I went out in the damp - i'm using T1-Rs on the Front & Continental SportContact 2s on the rear...

Was fun though, luckily (or unluckily for the fun factor) I missed out on a properly wet session, but was a passenger in another VxON members Cavalier LET in the rain in the session where the Zafira went pop and the big-gay wing Civic span on Camp...

I have no problems in the wet on the 888's. Even though the fronts are not road leagal any more, just a bit of controllable understeer the rear stays fine and planted.

But yes other factors are required to warrant needing them.
