Nitto NT-01's in the Rain

[spawpoet]

Does anybody out there have experience with the NT-01 tire in the rain yet??? If so how have they performed? My brother is running his school in two weeks and we will be running the Nittos we have been using in PDX's. I wanted to have an idea how they perform in the wet ahead of time in case it rains as it has most afternoons lately down here in S. Fla. Thank you.

I've ran on them on dry track and I like them but never on wet. Definately this is not a rain tire. It takes a bit to get them up to temperature and the tread is designed for maximum contact rather than channeling water. For school, unless you're dealing with constant rain and lots of standing water, they should be okay.
