I just ordered some Nankang NS-1 205 40 17 and I did some info digging and found out that they are not good for wet conditions because of the tread pattern. I heard alot of hydroplaning happens because of the dashes ending with no where for the water to go out.

If anyone thinks that these are okay or bad tires let me know before I mount them and risk my life...because I live in Minnesota and wet and snowy is how it is up here. State of 10,000 Lakes

But I checked out Nankang NS-2 and the tread pattern looked fine for wet conditions but it's too late for me cause I ordered NS-1 already.
Do guys think I should sell my NS-1 or stay with them?
