The rs3s are ok in the rain especially with them being brand new. Just don't do any quick movements or hard acceleration. Im on my 2nd set and have driven these tires in the rain with big spring rates and aggressive alignment and had no issues.

I'm about to pick up some RS3s. Any good deals around? Should I just order from tire rack and have them mounted locally?


This rain is retarded though. CA is so back asswards that it can't even get the weather right anymore.
