Rain tires

[LAP1DOUG]

Yes, Conti Extreme Contact DW is a fantastic rain tire. I normally run the widest dry track tires I can fit (like 255 front / 285 rear), but for rain tires, I am running much narrower (like 205 front / 245 rear) for good hydroplane resistance.

At one wet DE, I almost lapped the whole field. GRM magazine tested these Conti's in the rain, and found that they were fairly close to Hoosier wets, and at much lower cost than the HoHo's.

Good luck.
